Our roots

Hi, I’m Chris. Thanks for visiting!

Nature has always been part of my life, but it took on a deeper meaning during a period of profound loss. During this time, it offered a sense of calm and steadiness I couldn’t find anywhere else. A flash of red from a cardinal, the resilience of a wildflower pushing through rocky soil—these small moments carried me, and they sparked a growing sense of gratitude and curiosity about the living world around me.

After years in the tech world, I chose to follow that passion and dedicate myself to creating landscapes that support both people and wildlife. I’ve immersed myself in learning about Maine’s native plants, the pollinators they sustain, and the ways thoughtful design can bring new life to a space.

At Wild Heart Nativescapes, my goal is to help you experience those same benefits—bringing more beauty, balance, and vitality into your outdoor spaces. By weaving native plants and ecological design into your landscape, we can create a place that feels restorative to you, welcoming to pollinators, and deeply connected to the natural rhythms of Maine.
