About me
Catherine Magill
Peninsula native, life-long nature enthusiast and biologist (PhD, Stanford '90) - I bring together a deep understanding and respect for biology, botany and soil science with a love of design.
Experience and Training:
- Docent at Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve
- California Naturalist
- UC Master Gardener
- Qualified Water-Efficient Landscaper
- ReScape Qualified Professional - Landscape Design
- Certificate in Environmental Horticulture & Design at Foothill College.
Over the past ten years I have been restoring a distressed property in the Portola Valley hills and I want to share what I have learned from this process.
I can guide you to create a landscape that is beautiful, supports our native environment, truly saves water and fits your lifestyle. I can also teach you how to maintain it or arrange to come by periodically to fine-tune.
