Greenbelt Buffers

Habitat Inc. provides professional greenbelt design, installation, and maintenance services. Greenbelts, the vegetated areas along the margins of lakes, rivers, and streams, play an important role in protecting water quality and ecosystem health. Our staff go to great lengths to ensure establishment of a healthy, diverse greenbelt consisting of native species. We visit the site to assess soils, sun availability, and other environmental factors important to plant selection. Botanical records for the area near the site are consulted to guide plant composition in our greenbelt designs. Our staff’s comprehensive plant knowledge, coupled with extensive design experience, results in the installation of a greenbelt that maximizes habitat value and creates an attractive shoreline.
