We at Amber Freda believe in creating completely bee-friendly gardens. By only using organic pesticides and fertilizers, we hope to contribute in some small way to a healthier, more sustainable planet for both our bee friends and our fellow human beings. We don’t want our clients, their pets and children, or our team members exposed to dangerous toxic chemicals, either. We believe that making conscious decisions such as buying and supporting organic products helps make our world a better place for all of us.
