Tabor Hill
Tabor Hill is mostly ledge, and if it isn't ledge, it is sloping steeply to a large reservoir. The area is mostly oaks, thickly growing, with long, tall trunks. The client wanted a place for their children to play soccer. Instead of clear-cutting a lawn area in the upper part of the yard, above the grade of the house, we sensitively left a fringe of trees (some with perfect spacing for hammocks!), engineered and shaped the soil for rain-water capturing, and buried power lines for a clean finish. The site is unirrigated and planted with a fescue mix for shade.
