Wilder Gardens LLC works with native plants, and its website lists a service area that includes East Haddam, East Hampton, Portland, Haddam, Groton, Mansfield and Willington. The company says it has been in business for 3 years. In a 2026 review, a customer said they had used Wilder Gardens twice, most recently to replace a large amount of lawn with several native wildflower and grass meadows, and called the company reasonably priced for the quality. That customer named Kaleb and Jim as the people doing the work. A 2026 customer wrote that Jim had been helping them cultivate an ecological landscape for a few years and described him as knowledgeable about native plants and sustainable gardening.
Finally, a landscaper with a brain. Jim has a vast knowledge of native plants and sustainable gardening. He's been helping us cultivate an ecological landscape for a few years now, and we are very happy with him.
I have used Wilder Gardens twice now, most recently to replace a large amount of lawn with several native wildflower/grass meadows. They do an absolutely fantastic job, above and beyond, great communication and plants, my yard looks amazing. Kaleb and Jim are both passionate and knowledgeable, and it shows in the work they do. Plus they are very reasonably priced for the quality. Wish I could give this company 10 stars, I will definitely use them again!
