First, using a landscaping service was a luxury gift I gave myself for retirement. Unfortunately, the entire experience was horrible. Knowing we have three small dogs who use our backyard, the designer planned and executed a design using plants hazardous to our dogs. Unfortunately, one dog became extremely ill from eating one of the plants that turned out to be toxic to pets. We relied on the expertise of the landscaper. On top of it, they put mulch down that was infested with fleas. Our dogs never had a flea until the mulch was put down and the cost was ridiculous. Not only did we pay for plants and poor service, we also incurred costs for the vet for the dog that was sick, costs for 3 flea treatments for the dogs at the groomers, the cost of 2 pest control treatments for the yard, the cost of removing the flea infested mulch and buying new mulch, not to mention our time in taking care of this mess. The information the landscaper gave us about the mulch was discredited by our vet, pest control service and the internet. Would never recommend meadow farms for landscaping.
Review of Landscaping: My husband Sidney and I paid to have seven arborvitae installed around our chicken coop and run last year; installation occurred mid-December. The arborvitae installed in the most visible location never looked as healthy as the rest. We started taking photos to document, reported back to landscaper and was told it needed fertilizer. Fertilized as well as watered regularly to no avail; a large section at the bottom is brown and the plant has not grown at all since installation almost a year ago. After weeks of the landscaper ignoring his emails, my husband called the Chantilly office and was sent right back to same landscaper. In the end, we were told that the division managers refused to replace the one plant as we had requested- stating that it will come back and to give it time. It’s so far behind the rest it will most likely not recover. No one ever came out to look at the overall health of the plant, only wanted to look at photos which do not do it justice. We chose Meadows because of their guarantee, but will be taking our landscaping business elsewhere in the future.
Working with landscape designer Pepe Ayulo was fun. He listened carefully to what we wanted, and the design creatively incorporated our requests. The members of the crew that came to install the two new planting beds were friendly, efficient and hard working. They made sure to check that the bed edges were correctly positioned, and then before the plants were installed they validated the placement of each plant with us. It was a joy to have the two new beds cut, planted and mulched in less than 4 hours! The work was done on a Monday, and by Tuesday we had multiple positive comments from neighbors!
Landscape division is the absolute worst. Being under a warranty with plants that are quite costly I have been trying to replace dead plants for the second time in two years and managers in customer service just ignore the asks. Emails go unanswered for weeks and responses never address the questions. Grounds maintenance and nursery staff are fantastic but my experience has been so bad I would give negative stars if possible.
This 2024 early spring review is an update to an original post I made 8 months ago. My relationship with Meadows Farms Landscaping, especially with Jim their top designer, has developed into a partnership. Delighted with the transformation of my front yard last spring, I had Jim plan a backyard design in early fall. I continue to be impressed with his process of working with my wife and me to fill a mostly shady area, comprised of oak and hickory trees. His design brings a blend of blooms from evergreen bushes and perennial flowers. A multitude of colors for every season from late winter to late fall. His passion is evident in the reasons Jim presents for a particular grouping of plants in the various areas of my landscape. Impressive is accessibility to, and follow up with Jim, throughout the year, to answer my questions about plant care such as the optimum fertilizers for the plant types and soil composition, to pruning guidance for maintaining an exquisite appearance enjoyed from every house window, the deck and the patio. Decades of working with landscapers now and again, this is the first company that has demonstrated consistent interest that I am pleased with the results. I highly recommend. Spring 2023 Meadows Farms hires excellent people, such as Jim and Francisco. I give both guys 5 Stars! Jim designed our front-yard landscape after learning from my wife and me our objective, likes and dislikes. Jim has decades of experience designing and delivering extraordinary landscapes. He is an award winner in the industry and was a landscaping business owner with a couple of partners earlier in his career. We are lucky to have his talent here in NOVA with Meadows Farms. His design, comprised of compact shrubs and perennials, has at least one plant and often several blooming during All Four Seasons (yes, white blooms in winter!). I have only a little maintenance to keep the flower garden spectacular. Jim's design includes three “textures” within the landscape: Colorful River Jack gravel circling my large existing star magnolia; brown mulch positioned as bookends in the landscape; an area of vinca minor groundcovers in a bed of black, rich humus. Once the vinca minor spreads, it will replace the black humus texture with a sea of dark green. We’ve received many compliments from our neighbors. Francisco is the site-foreman who installed the 34 plants and tree within a day, leading his 5-man team. As I watched the work progress, Francisco asked me now and again if I was pleased with the appearance and progress. Francisco leads his team well and was thorough when addressing my questions throughout the day. He came back a week later at my request, to spread more large River Jack for an improved appearance. I opted to purchase the smaller plants Meadows Farms offers due to my budget. My flower garden will reach maturity within 2 years. In exchange for my patience, I got a lot of color and texture – a beautiful garden - within my budget. I highly recommend Meadows Farms for high-quality landscaping. Below are 2 Before Photos and 3 After Photos to illustrate the significant transition.
Approximately 20 months ago we had Meadows Farms install a dry creek bed in our backyard due to the erosion from the heavy rains we were experiencing here and Alexandria. We started having some issues earlier this summer of 2021 due to the multiple flash flood rain storms that occurred in the area. I reached out to Meadows Farm and they sent someone over to scope of what was issue and how to rectify it. A few weeks later, a crew of workers came out and took care of the issue and made our yard look better than ever. My husband and I are AMAZED at how nicely everything looks and how they resolved the issue in a timely manner! We will continue to use Meadows Farms for our landscape and hardscape projects. We are VERY pleased customers. We want to thank all of those who helped make this an amazing project.
So after spending over $14,000 with this company for our patio late last summer the patio starting sinking and we called them and they came out to fix it and it seemed fine. During the fall it starting sinking again and was told to wait till the spring to make sure no other issues came about during the winter. This spring I had a professional come take a look at it to be sure it had been built and installed properly. Once we opened up one of the stones we found that all they had done was fill the inside with a little bit of dirt and almost 12 inches of sand and they never used 21A and lied about it when I asked them. My new contractor said it was built wrong and the sand is why it was sinking. I let a Meadow farms Manager come out to inspect it and he agreed it was built very poorly. I told him I did not trust them to do the work again as before they had people building it that didn't know how to put a patio in. I needed it fixed fast as I was having an event the next weekend and so I had to hire my other contractor who only does driveways and patios to fix the poorly built patio to the tune of $4,000. I have pictures and videos of the entire process and plan to serve them a demand letter to get reimbursed the $4,000 I had to spend to fix their mistakes they obliviously made on purpose. I do not recommend using this company for patios the only thing they know how to do is plant trees and some flowers.
We have used Meadow's Farms Landscaping/Hardscaping Design for both our front yard a couple years ago and just this past week to start our new back yard. Rick Meadows did an excellent job designing the front, so we did not hesitate to call when we wanted to back redesigned. Once again, Rick used his vision and and listened to what we wanted. A great landscaping team of 4 showed up and over the course of 2 days, transformed our backyard into a nice sitting area, patio, steps, and some retaining walls for both looks and support. We are thoroughly happy, and will continue to look to Meadows Farms for future projects.

So pleased with the landscaping performed by Meadows Farms Landscaping team. Essy and his staff did an amazing job with my front, side and backyard, and neighbors are complimenting their work. Very impressed and worth every penny!
Farnaz Semsar is an excellent landscape designer at Meadows Farms Landscaping. She is skillful, knowledgeable about plants, soil and installation, and has an intuitive sense of what works best in a space. She has been 100% responsive and supportive of our needs, always listening and addressing all our concerns. She never tries to up-sell us on more plants, but rather suggests how to build off what we already have that is healthy. She is the landscape designer I always wished for! i only wish i had had her years ago, as i have faced challenges with landscape designers from other competitors to Meadows Farms. Bravo Farnaz! Bravo Meadows Farms!
They charge you $100 for a guy to come and make a design for you. The design is 3rd grade level and should be free. It is free from other landscapers dont know why they charge this price.
It is the place where you can find everything you are looking for for your patios
Nice company easy delivery overnight parking available only street unloading fast hard worker guys! Opening 8am but 7am every guys here!
Meadow Farms is the best! The landscape designer, Kevin, helped us envision our space, and drew a layout that we love. The foreman, Jose, was very professional, polite, and hard working. He and his crew completed the hardscape project ahead of time, and it looks even better than we imagined! We will definitely be recommending Meadow Farms to family and friends, and will use them again for our next outdoor project!
Hired Meadows Farms landscaping for their summer garden maintenance program. What a huge disappointment! Didn t call to let me know when to expect them. Were not responsive to my requests. Last month, one worker began weed whacking before I even knew they d arrived. The specific instructions were to only use chemicals on the specific weed we were trying to destroy. Very sad. I would not recommend them.
The Turkish house is as beautiful as it suits us Turks. We will go and see it in 2 weeks, inshallah
I have Meadows farms plant 36 green giant arborvitaes 2 years ago. Had issues with some of trees during the first year and Meadows farm always replaced them. Now 34 of the trees are growing well, rest 2 of them are growing slowly.
SPAMMERS! SPAMMERS! SPAMMERS! These people started spamming me. Im 2000 miles away from you, there is no possible way I subscribed to your spam. SPAMMERS! Do not do business with spammers. March 2021 UPDATE! I emailed the CEO and showed him VIDEO PROOF of my unsubscribing, but I still get spams every week. And now he wont reply. Caught red handed. Caught in LIES. Do you really want to do business with someone like this?
Little on the muddy side but a great place
I cannot say enough nice things about Meadows Farms. They built us a beautiful stone staircase about 15 years ago. We hired them again last fall to correct a low corner of our house which needed a retaining wall. There was a miscommunication and the job was not finished as expected. Meadows Farms management responded quickly and professionally. They had to wait for the ground to thaw this spring but the job has been completed beyond our original expectations. The work crews that came were focused and very hard working. Im looking around for another job for Meadows Farms to do for us. I cannot say enough nice things about Meadows Farms.
Great designs and customer service!
They are always great
Good meadows farms
Beautiful place.
The crew that came out with Rolando were true professionals. They worked nonstop until the job was done. And follow-up was appreciated.
In 10 years I will have the privacy line I asked for today. I should have just paid to have a non tree fence installed. They will not listen to what you need or want. You will spend about of money and not have expectations even remotely meet your needs. I spent an extra $6500 to have the issue corrected, on top of the $25k I had already spent on this project. Will never use again and I highly recommend that you look elsewhere.
We had sods installation project in our front yard. Chase came and gave us a price quote which didnt took more than minutes and after our deposit (half of the total price) we were scheduled for about two weeks later. They didnt give me a call in the morning as they were supposed to but showed up on time. Grady, Joey, and lofantee were a good team working very well with each other, very polite, and took good care of our yard. The quality of sods they put was acceptable with very few weeds and holes or tears. They finished faster than I expected, hauled our old dead grass, and cleaned up when wanted to leave. Thanks for all your hard work and time.
Jon did an excellent job on my landscape design project. The team that did the install was very professional and the results are fantastic!! Great experience from start to finish. Would definitely recommend.
Great staff very helpful, efficient professional and trained.
If you are dealing with the Grounds Maintenance department prepare yourself for very poor customer service or lack there of. Find someone who is more organized, reliable, responsive and trustworthy. There business practices are not very good. I wasted a lot of money and time dealing with these people trying to get service and solutions to problems I was having because of their doings. They dont stand by their word and the left hand and the right hand dont seem to talk. Not to mention... they are overpriced! It takes a lot to get under my skin.... and they did! They are Poorly managed and unorganized!!!
Hired this company to redo our front and side yards last year. Tired to call them 7 times over 2 weeks with no return call to try to set up spring cleaning. Great way to treat a customer who paid thousands of dollars less than 12 months prior. I will look elsewhere for my landscaping needs and suggest you do as well. Adam
We are really happy with our landscape design that was installed by Meadows Farms last fall. Our designer Vic was great through the whole process. Really patient, had tons of great ideas, and even came back to work with us on alternative designs to get our costs down. The job was done in a day and done well, including a gorgeous stone wall. Here we are 10 months later in the spring and the plants looks healthy and beautiful, exactly as planned out. We had two plants not make it through the winter and they dutifully honored the warranty with no argument. We routinely get compliments from neighbors and visitors on our landscaping. It has totally changed our property.
Good people got me unloaded in a couple of minutes.
I m happy with meadow farms
I have scheduled to have core aeration done on my lawn and specifically asked to be done in late September. This company asked me to pay half of the bill when I called in July and I did. They never give me a date when I asked for the set date (called several times) until two days before they come out in mid October. I could not cancel the job and I could not over seed my lawn due to cold temperature. The VP of Meadows Farms did contact me and apologize. It was an oversight of their part and refunded me in full. The VP handled the situation very well. Customers are not always right but be able to admit that it was an oversight of their part after he looked into the matter. I really appreciated his effort. Some company will just ignore it.
Friendly people, though value for your money is going down. We have a tradition of getting our Christmas trees from Meadow Farms. It s typically been a great experience and value for our family. This year a typical 8-9 foot tree went up in price by more than 20% and the quality of trees went significantly down. We just put our tree up this year, and we all said don t think we have ever got such a small / thin tree for that given range of trees they typically stock. It wasn t for lack of trying we went two different days and two different locations (Chantilly and Leesburg). Don t mind a premium price but the quality of the trees should go along with that. Next year will probably shop around more or try Cox which has typically been more pricey for trees in other years.
Fantastic selection of plants and flowers. Excellent planting and landscape teams that ensure your job is done right. Hardscape is team is great too !
Project Details: design and build flower beds alongside property lines in the backyard Design - Very good design; however didnt incorporate customer plant preferences; poor recommendation of plants according to water and light conditions; totally ignored abnormal water conditions that killed atleast 50% of plants Build - overlayed design onto the yard very well; however no attention to detail like properly levelling and edging the bed; rushed execution that lead to calling them twice to fix the problems; inadequate amount of material like top soil Customer Service - Just simply horrible; had several issues but only fixed some dead plants after calling for six months; wasted time and money Business values - Business over customer satisfaction; dont stand behind their work; protect themselves and not the customer Overall - Select Meadows Farms for design; pay them $50 for design connsultation; and run as far and fast as you can...
quick response to design request. Everything went well. One tree didnt make it through the winter. It was replaced promptly.
Great job on my landscape project! I loved working with Kevin. He helped me make affordable choices and the final outcome was better than expected. The work crew was very good too.
Meadows provided a designer who did a great job. He interviewed us took our ideas and developed plan that really enhanced the front yard. The installation crew was outstanding: they arrived on time; got the ground prepared for the plants; the stone work turned was really well done; and cleaned up like no one had been here. The extraordinary aspect of their work was it was on a day that 93 degrees and 85% humidity
I have wanted to have landscaping done for a few years now and just didnt know how to start. I read about Meadows Farms in our local newspaper - The Journal - in Martinsburg, WV, and decided to call and have them make a visitation. I now know I made a perfect decision. The landscaper who came did an absolutely FANTASTIC job in designing landscaping for our property. He asked me about my ideas and likes in plants and flowers and made a design that incorporated plants I liked as well as some I knew nothing about. The design was wonderful and I couldnt wait to have it done. When the gentlemen came to doing the actual planting, they were very professional worked quickly to get all the work done; and cleaned up wonderfully. The landscaping is beautiful and both my husband and I are very pleased the work done to our property and the good cost of everything. I plan to have some additional work done next spring. Meadows Farms is a wonderful company. GREAT JOB!!!
