Chefs & Property Management

Jon Weems
Commercial Property Manager: Regent Properties
I’ve worked with Urban Dirt both professionally and personally. They successfully installed a (5 figure $) large-scale culinary garden at a DFW office campus on time and on budget. Plants are thriving and looking beautiful, but most of all our chef is happy! I would highly recommend Urban Dirt for your commercial or residential garden needs. -2017

Chef Robert Lyford
Patina Greens Restaurant and Home Store in McKinney, TX.
Piper and Urban Dirt Gardening Company maintains our restaurant kitchen garden located in historic downtown McKinney. She makes us look good! I am amazed at the amount of food she can grow in a limited space. Piper is highly creative, easy to work with, and we would recommend her services to anyone . . . gardens for personal use or professional kitchens. -2017

Piper has been growing most of our Mediterranean herbs for over 3 years. This garden is just 20 steps from my kitchen and is a very great way to bring the campus employees into our restaurant.

Mark and Joanna Hensley
McKinney, Tx & Now Mississippi!
We recently purchased land in Mississippi to start an organic farm and garden. We had no idea where to start so we called Piper. She had previously designed a small cottage garden for us so we knew she was an incredible resource. She is intelligent and creative but also possesses deep experiential knowledge. Piper is kind, patient, and relatable. She is an excellent teacher with a gift for communicating essential information while also instilling and inspiring confidence in her client. If you hire Piper, you definitely won’t be disappointed. She is simply amazing!
