We Dig! is the blog site for Groundswell Garden Design: a company in Portland, Oregon offering garden consultation, design, coaching and detailing. My name is Abigail Pierce, owner, designer and coach – also known as “plantnerd”. I have tried to make a business that may be a little different: I work intimately with my clients to give them the most hands-on experience and knowledge in their gardens. The teaching aspect of garden coaching and consulting is extremely satisfying.
