Terra Takes on Nob Hill

One of the fun things about the landscaping business is that you never know who or where your next new client will be. Earlier this year, we received an inquiry from a luxury hotel on San Francisco’s storied Nob Hill. They needed help with the entry landscape and a few indoor spots, and they were under tight deadlines for their re-opening ceremony. We accepted the challenge! Conditions were crazy at the job site, with cable cars flying by and construction and delivery crews jostling for space, but we were able to slip in and…

Happy Holidays 2025

Each year, Terra throws a company-wide holiday party at our San Leandro headquarters. Last Friday, late in the morning, the aromas of home-style birria, hot pozole, and handmade tortillas began filling our offices, making it difficult to finish our work. Christmas lights were lit, and tables were set up and decorated. Next came upbeat music, and the party was officially started. We even had a visit from Cool Santa. After a delicious lunch and a fierce Jenga tournament we enjoyed Cassidy’s traditional bilingual statement of…

Fall Colors

Fall colors are a yearly gift from Mother Nature, marking the change of seasons and reminding us of the beauty of natural cycles. At Terra, we gear up every Autumn for the massive task of collecting and disposing of all those fallen leaves. We’ve been looking at ways to make use of that overabundance without sending it to the greenwaste facility. It’s not really waste but rather a potential way to give the soil a nutritional boost and make our landscapes even healthier and more self-sustaining. To feed the soil (and all…
