In 1998, after 10 years of studying horticulture and working in gardens around the Greater Toronto Area, Teresa Matamoros founded Garden Holistics. 6 years later, finding she was spending too much time in her truck getting from site to site instead of nurturing the plants she loved, Teresa boldly moved the business to the shores of southern Georgian Bay in 2004. It was – quite literally – a breath of fresh air!

At the time, Teresa’s son, Gabriel, had been developing his passion for landscape construction in Vancouver, BC. He jumped at the opportunity to move back to Ontario and join as a partner in the business. This mother-son team have worked together over the last 18 years to expand Garden Holistics Inc. into a full-service landscape company serving the Thornbury, Clarksburg, Blue Mountain, Collingwood and Meaford areas.

By combining the science of horticulture with expert organic gardening practices, we are masters at creating outdoor spaces for entertainment and relaxation which are as functional as they are beautiful.

We maximize our positive impacts on the environment by creating our own organic compost with the herbaceous and small woody material removed during garden and lawn cleanups. We complete work by hand as often as possible instead of using gas-powered machines, and we use only organic fertilizers.
