Ogden is the historic heart of Weber County, and a lot of its yards have good bones that were simply built decades ago. Felter Landscape works across the city's older neighborhoods, redesigning dated landscapes and updating tired hardscape into something current.
Ogden is the oldest established city in the county, running from the historic East Bench homes with their mature trees down to the flats near the Ogden River and the 25th Street downtown core. East Bench properties tend toward smaller, deeply settled lots with established canopy and aging walls, retaining, and irrigation that often predate the current owner. Closer to the river and downtown the lots flatten and vary in size. Soils range from bench clay up high to richer river-influenced ground lower down, and at around 4,300 feet in Zone 6b the city sees the standard valley season with mature shade that changes plant selection.

Ogden landscaping questions
My older Ogden yard has big mature trees. Will a redesign hurt them?
No. On East Bench properties the mature canopy is an asset we design around, not remove. We plan grading and hardscape to protect root zones and lean into shade-tolerant plantings, so the trees that took 40 years to grow stay healthy.
The retaining wall on my old Ogden property is failing. Can you replace it?
Yes. Aging mortared or stacked walls on the older bench lots are common, and we rebuild them with hand-set, locally sourced boulder walls engineered for proper water management, so the new one outlasts the one it replaces.
