No lawn mowers, no blowers, no chemicals
MAXIMUM NATURE,
MINIMAL INTERVENTION
MINIMAL INTERVENTION
At Terra Verde, we rethink what it means to care for a garden.
We see the landscape not as something to control, but as a living system we work with – not against.
We avoid noisy machines and toxic treatments.
Everything is done by hand, with care and respect for the land and its rhythms.
It may not be the conventional way –
but it’s what makes a garden truly resilient.

No unnecessary noise
We don’t rely on weed-whackers for routine maintenance.
Instead, we carefully inspect the landscape and remove weeds by hand – slowly and precisely.
This allows us to protect valuable cultivated plants and young seedlings that could easily be damaged by mechanical trimming.
Where precision and attention to detail matter, we trust hands and experience – not machines.

Balancing hardscape and softscape with care
Precision over power tools
We rely on equipment only when it truly makes sense – never at the expense of flowers, soil, or the atmosphere of your garden.
If a rake will do the job, we’ll choose the rake.
Our goal is to preserve the quiet, the rhythm, and the natural beauty of the space.

We use tools – but with care and respect for all living things
We will do a «first-impression consultation» for your home and garden. This will give you a sense of our initial understanding and ideas for your home
We can do this using photos and videos of your property

Care rooted in natural solutions
No harsh chemicals
In Portugal’s dry climates, water isn’t just a convenience – it’s a true necessity.
We design gardens to use as little irrigation as possible, choosing drought-tolerant plants and working with soil, shade, and microclimate to reduce consumption naturally.
Smart water use isn’t a compromise – it’s the foundation of responsible
