Hello -
Slightly Wild Garden Service is based in Olympia WA, owned and operated by Glen Buschmann.
I specialize in:
• Restoring gardens gone awry.
• Introducing diversity into existing gardens so as to improve habitat for wildlife.
• Developing native shrub and perennial flower gardens.
• Skilled and discrete pruning;
When finished your trees and shrubs will be more balanced and less cluttered.
If you prefer stubs and torn bark call someone else.
I teach workshops on these topics as well on native pollinators, weed identification, and seed saving.
I can lead programs suitable for ages elementary through adult, depending upon the lead time.
I am NOT a lawn service, but do provide maintenance in some gardens with shrub and flower beds.
I do not create architectural scale drawings, although I can make sketches with some details.
I take on special projects as time allows such as:
stone garden paths and patios
small arbor and fence projects
mushroom beds
irrigation repair
miscellaneous odd repairs.
I will post some photos of my work over the coming months.
I am a licensed business in the state: #601-043-817, with many years of experience. I stand by my work, but am not bonded, meaning I do not take on projects that could result in big liabilities.
If you are wondering why you haven't heard of me, I spent most of the past ten years working in a different field (education) before recently returning to this field that I deeply enjoy and understand.
Thank You,
Glen Buschmann

My wife, her sister, and I have a blog on wildlife and the natural world - mostly in Thurston County but also in other parts of Washington State at Bees, Birds, and Butterflies. Check us out.
