Homegrown Bounty Landscapes in Encinitas

We couldn’t be happier with the incredible transformation Homegrown Bounty Landscaping brought to our front yard! What was once an overgrown space full of invasive plants has now become a lush, colorful tropical landscape filled with native, low-water plants that perfectly complement the ecosystem. Morgan and Jon were exceptional throughout the entire process. They listened carefully to our creative vision, asked thoughtful questions, and then delivered results that went above and beyond what we imagined. From removing stubborn ivy and disintegrated railroad ties to planting vibrant, sustainable greenery, their dedication and attention to detail were evident every step of the way. The entire project team was kind, professional, and clearly passionate about their craft. It’s rare to find a company that combines such talent, care, and expertise. Thanks to Homegrown Bounty Landscaping, we now have a garden that not only enhances the beauty of our home but also supports the local environment. We couldn’t recommend them more highly!

I am a landscape designer and have worked with Jon on several projects. I am so impressed with his integrity and attention to detail . He is very charming and has a great way with clients. He makes my designs shine! Thank you Jon. It has been such a pleasure collaborating with you and I look forward to many more projects together.

We called Jon in because we wanted to install a drip system in an existing garden in our backyard, and add a timer to the existing drip system in our front yard. The work from him, and his team, was fantastic! He was amazing to work with! He listened to what we wanted to do, made suggested changes that he thought would work better, and had it all done in just a few days. His recommended changes saved us money. Our existing backyard space went from OK to plants that are thriving. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

After relocating from New York City to Encinitas, buying a house with a sweet sized garden but the worst water guzzlers around and so badly planned, I starting searching for a landscape designer who could help me remove the lawn ad all the other thirsty plants, I found Jon Kardos. Jon and I planned a garden including major irrigation, a water tank, lawn removal, swale and stone riverbed construction to catch and save all rain water and planting a California native garden! It was a match made in heaven! We established a working/teaching relationship that was super easy, super informative and the end result is the garden of my dreams! As the garden grows, now 1 year later, I remain excited as I see what happens when you plan and plant a garden! Thank you Jon!

Jon designed and, with his crew, built two raised garden beds for us, replaced about 85% of our existing landscaping with California natives, and installed a new drip irrigation system to keep it all alive. Jon is very kind, thoughtful, and creative and was responsive, reliable, and communicative throughout the job; his crew is very friendly and dedicated. Jon shared our enthusiasm for habitat creation, water conservation, and cost consciousness and worked with us to pick out the right plants, including a lot of shade tolerant natives. We've never felt like a faceless customer to Jon--it's clear that he takes pride in his work and in the relationships he is building.

We recently worked with Jon and his team at Homegrown Bounty Garden for an irrigation and tree planting project. His team did great with both. We are picky gardeners and were looking for someone we could trust to do the job we wanted, and was willing to listen to how we wanted the projects to be done… Jon was great. He listened, had constructive feedback and was able to cleanly execute our plan. We loved his attention to detail and his wide knowledge base. He is not a fly by night landscaper. He thoughtfully thought about each component of what we were looking for. We would highly recommend him and his team for any landscape type project. They will do a great job for you.

We hired Jon with Homegrown Bounty to finish the last section of our retaining wall/system and also install some Netafim irrigation, and he did a great job! He was responsive and professional, communicated well, and the retaining wall looks beautiful, we're thrilled with how it turned out.

We highly recommend Jon at Homegrown Bounty Gardens. We worked with him about a year ago to change our irrigation over to netafim drip and he installed all of our new landscaping for us. Jon is responsive, on time, and does quality work. I know if we ever had an issue, I could text or call him and he would come out right away. He is trustworthy and so nice to work with. He also builds garden beds which we may be needing soon. Thanks Jon!
