Mickie Hale – Landscape Design, Sunshine Coast, BC
With client input she creates a unique and personalized garden. The team can design landscape, irrigation and lighting plans to suit your specific needs and scale. We are pleased to project manage all excavation, hardscaping, select and installation of plant material and install any irrigation and lighting to your property.
Mickie studied at the Victoria College of Art as well as taking specific course selections at Guelph University, Ont. Both Mickie’s father and grandfather were successful landscapers managing their own companies which heavily influenced Mickie’s decision to continue the tradition. Mickie started designing landscapes in Victoria, BC, Canada’s garden capital. Enjoying the creating of gardens lead her to start her own company. She would continue her design and maintenance business in Victoria for 10 years before moving to the mainland to design and install gardens for 4 years.
The projects in Vancouver involved landscaping private residences, condo complexes, hi-rises as well as commercial projects. Mickie moved to the Sunshine Coast 20 years ago and has been landscaping private residences ever since.
