About us

Two builders, one standard

Garden Craft DC grew out of one community garden plot in Glover Park and a habit of building things properly. Beautifully designed gardens built quickly to your specs!

Our story

Started in the dirt

We began with raised beds for our own plot at the Glover Park Community Garden. Neighbors asked for beds. Then they asked for fences, gates, pergolas and sheds. Each build taught us something about DC soil, DC critters and DC alleys.

Today we design and build gardens across DC, Maryland and Virginia. We draw every project to scale, give you a same day quote after the site visit and build it by hand from zero VOC stained lumber and galvanized hardware. You see the plan before we start and you follow the work in your customer portal.

We keep the crew small so the people who design your garden are the people who build it.

What we stand for

Four rules for every build

Measure twice

Every project starts with a scaled drawing. The drawing is the contract.

Build for 20 years

Zero VOC stained lumber, galvanized wire and ground contact posts. Materials that outlast the fashion.

Same day quotes

Same day design/build/cleanup quotes after site visit! Changes are agreed in writing before the work.

Leave it clean

Sawdust swept, offcuts hauled and beds watered in before we go.
