Who we are
Our family run business provides comprehensive services including garden installation, garden care, meadow seeding & management, garden rehabilitation, and tree removal and care. Husband and wife team Ceilidh Galloway-Kane and Geoff Fehrs started the business in 2020. With help from our dynamic and highly trained team we offer services throughout the Northeast Kingdom and Central Vermont.
We believe strongly that landscapes should be both beautiful and beneficial.

Milo Kane-Fehrs - Real Boss :)
Milo is the reason Ecotone Exists. The company was born out his parents desire to raise their son in the outdoors while working with Vermont families, like theirs, to create and maintain gorgeous landscapes that are a pleasure to come home to. Milo has been on landscape jobs since he was 4 weeks old, and can often be found chatting with any trees, shrubs, and/or household pets he can find (he is 3).
Mikayla Pick - Office Manager
Mikayla grew up mostly in Vermont and has always enjoyed being outdoors especially with animals. She has a BS from University of Vermont and has been a business owner for 6 years. With starting a family she is looking forward to stepping back from the rigors of running a business and working with Ecotone to streamline customer care and employee satisfaction.

He most recently served as the Director of Outdoor Maintenance for one of Central Indiana’s top-tier landscape firms, where he guided several crews in caring for over 150 high-end estates. James is passionate about the "science" of a healthy landscape, and he’s excited to bring that expertise to our clients across central and northern Vermont, ensuring every property receives the highest level of care.
Meredith Nicol- Garden Crew Lead
