Hello readers, My name is Dawn De La Torre and I am the Owner and Horticulturalist for Custom Native Landscapes. I am happy to announce the launch of my new website, and I hope it brings you as much joy as it has brought me.
I am very passionate about nature and the environment, which has led me to try and help! I have my B.S. from American Public University, with a concentration in Fish and Wildlife Management. From there I found my way to Natural Resource Management, and enjoyed my time trudging through forest to assess forest health and flag invasive plant specimens.
Spending time as an environment educator, teaching children, teens, adults, and seniors has inspired me to want to educate more people about the wonders of nature, gardening and plant propagation. I fell in love with creating outdoor spaces that are a place of calm, reflection and peace for people to enjoy. It starts with one outdoor space at a time.
I had a realization that an outdoor space without life is not as enjoyable, so the answer was simple. Invite and sustain life in your outdoor space. My passion and love for all life, wild animals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and most of all the plants. We need all of these creatures to create a ecosystem, so why not invite them to where you live? I love looking out my bedroom window to see monarch caterpillars eating my milkweed! That is why its there. Its for them, and watching them brings me an unmeasurable amount of joy and peace. I believe this is how we can help!
