Landscape Design
Bespoke, drawn-to-scale designs that balance beauty with how you actually live outdoors — privacy, entertaining, and easy upkeep.
North Fork of Long Island
From Mattituck to Orient, we design, build and care for estate landscapes that frame the vineyards, the water and the light this place is known for.
Rooted in this place
The North Fork is its own world — salt air off the Peconic and the Sound, rows of vineyards catching the afternoon light, shingled farmhouses and modern waterfront retreats. A landscape here has to do more than look good in a brochure. It has to belong.
We design for the realities of this peninsula: coastal wind and salt, sandy soils, deer pressure, and Southold Town's natural-buffer requirements. The result is a landscape that looks effortless, performs through every season, and feels unmistakably of the North Fork.
What we do
One team for the whole arc of your landscape — from the first sketch to the leaf cleanup twenty years from now.
Bespoke, drawn-to-scale designs that balance beauty with how you actually live outdoors — privacy, entertaining, and easy upkeep.
Patios, walkways, stone walls, fire features and pool surrounds — built to last and detailed to impress.
Layered, four-season plantings and Southold-Code-compliant native buffers that thrive in coastal soils and resist deer.
Architectural lighting and smart sprinkler systems that protect your investment and extend the evening outdoors.
Excavation, drainage and grading that solve the problems you don't see — so the landscape you do see stays perfect.
Discreet, year-round care — fine gardening, seasonal cleanups and snow management — that keeps your property show-ready.
Why North Fork Landscape Design
Most homeowners have to choose between a talented designer who can't maintain the property and a maintenance crew with no eye for design. Here you get both, under one roof.
Every project starts with a real plan — not a truck full of plants and a guess.
The people who design your landscape are the people who build and care for it.
Salt, wind, sandy soil and Town Code are designed-for, not discovered later.
The resources of Shore to Shore Landcare stand behind every commitment we make.

Where we work
From the Riverhead line to Orient Point, and across the bay to the East End, we bring estate-level design and care to the homes that define this coast.
Check AvailabilityFrom historic village homes to bayfront retreats, we design and maintain Southold and Peconic landscapes that respect the town's character — including fully compliant native buffers under Southold Town Code.
Surrounded by vineyards and farm fields, Cutchogue and New Suffolk properties call for landscapes that frame the view. We blend native plantings, stone hardscape and outdoor living spaces built for entertaining.
On the wider western North Fork, we handle everything from full design-build installations to year-round estate maintenance, drainage and irrigation for larger lots and waterfront parcels.
Out toward the point, salt and wind are the design challenge. We specialize in coastal-hardy plantings, screening buffers and durable hardscape that keep Greenport, East Marion and Orient homes beautiful through every season.
Where the North Fork begins, we bring the same design-led approach and full-service care to Aquebogue and Riverhead estates, vineyards and commercial grounds.
By appointment, we extend our luxury landscape design and estate maintenance across the bay to Shelter Island and the East End's most discerning Hamptons properties.
