Requesting Help Finding Someone to Plant Flower or other Garden Instead of Lawn

Hello,

I've always liked the idea of flower beds or other garden types of yards, and now with the environmental issues we are facing I like the idea of not mowing (I also do not like the mind-numbing chore of mowing). In fact, my wife and I were looking at homes in Spain, just sort of dreaming, and after a while I started to recognize the fat that there was something I liked about the area. Then it dawned on me - No lawns!!

Anyway, this year I would like to hire someone to plant and/or help me plant something that will be nice and help me cut down on the mowing. Does anyone here know how I can find someone to help me with this? I don't want a corporate type of company, I want someone who knows about the environmental impact, if that's possible. Side note, we live in Vermont.

I wouldn't even mind putting a sign out to help with awareness. Something like "We planted flowers instead of grass to help..."

Thank you all.
