About Us

Custom Landscapes, located in beautiful Richmond, Vermont was founded by Schuyler Timmons. I have been landscaping for 10 years and running a business for 4. Custom Landscapes was founded with the understanding that the earth’s landscape is dynamic and unique. This goes for people as well, and thus we strive to work with clients in whatever way we can be helpful while working with the landscape around their house. Thus giving a “Custom” experience. Providing design and implementation of pretty much anything you can think of including but not limited to stone work, plantings, fences, garden maintenance, tree/brush removal, lawn care, earth work, etc.

I get a ton of reward from working outside and being creative with my work. I’ve had many of the same clients for many years who appreciate my hard work and attention to detail. Even though I do now have employees, I am still trying to spend as much time as possible on site because I want to maintain my customer relations and ensure a high quality product. I also am very focused on operating and working in a sustainable manner and love to work with people on creating functional, aesthetically pleasing landscapes that also promote principles that enhance the natural environment. I have training in permaculture principles, and really enjoy using edibles and pollinators whenever possible. 

Please check out my photos of  past projects, and let me know if you have a project or idea that you would like to discuss. I always do an initial free site visit and estimate.
