About Meadowcraft Ecological Services

Science-based meadow design and restoration in Central New York

Our Mission

To transform underperforming lawns and open spaces into resilient, ecologically grounded meadows that support biodiversity, beauty, and ease of care.

Our Vision

A Central New York where landowners, communities, and ecosystems thrive together through thoughtful, long-term stewardship.

What We Believe

Ecology First

Our work is grounded in field ecology, species knowledge, and long-term landscape function.

Beauty Through Stewardship

A thriving meadow isn’t just planted — it’s guided, cared for, and understood over time.

Partnership With the Landowner

We collaborate closely so landowners feel informed, connected, and empowered.

Our Approach

We combine ecological science, design sensitivity, and practical field experience to create meadows that are both resilient and beautiful. Our approach emphasizes:

  • careful site assessment
  • species selection grounded in your soil and hydrology
  • multi-year establishment and monitoring
  • adaptive stewardship
  • opportunities for deeper connection and creativity through Meadowcraft Studio
