Design & Planning

Pizzo provides our clients with comprehensive planning and design services ranging from conceptual sketches to construction drawings and written specifications necessary for bidding, implementation, and all facets of stewardship.

Installation

We utilize only highly trained and experienced full-time personnel on our installation crews and provide them with the highest quality plant materials, hard materials, and equipment to get the job done right. Pizzo’s installation techniques are industry-leading and result in a high level of long-term success.

Stewardship

Stewardship may be the most important aspect of restoration -- without it, success will not be achieved. Pizzo maintains a full-time stewardship staff that is experienced and extensively trained in all aspects of natural areas stewardship. Stewardship activities often include brush cutting, mowing, herbicide applications, hand pulling, and prescribed fire.

Erosion Control

Conventional solutions to erosion problems are expensive, detrimental to wildlife, unattractive and may cause increased flooding and erosion. We offer a bioengineered solution that is substantially less expensive to maintain, nurtures wildlife and allows plants to become well established.

Prescribed Fire

A prescribed fire is the most cost effective form of natural area stewardship. It is the ideal solution to control invasive species, stimulate growth of native plants, reduce woody growth and increase plant and animal diversity. Pizzo offers prescriptions by analyzing various factors specific to each site.

Nursery

We offer an array of native seeds and plants most of which are produced and processed by our on-site nursery. With the experience and expertise of Pizzo’s nursery staff, we lead the industry in propagation techniques. We believe that our nursery produces a superior product yielding unequaled, successful results in the field.
