Native Plant Landscaping & Meadow Conversion
in Portland, Oregon
licensed-bonded-insured
We design, build, and maintain Oregon native plant landscapes — from urban meadows and wetlands to food forests and native woodland ecosystems — supporting wildlife, improving soil health, and growing more resilient and self-sustaining over time.
Landscape Installation
Transition from Traditional Landscaping to Habitat Quickly
We create living, evolving landscapes that provide immediate ecological function and grow more resilient, lush, and low-maintenance over time, resulting in a regenerative landscape that looks and functions just like the natural forests, wetlands, and meadows of the Pacific Northwest.​
Oregon Native Plant Ecosytem
Maintenance
Transition from Traditional Landscaping to Habitat Slow;y
We allow seasonal processes and native plant functions to naturally improve soil health, reduce weed pressure, support wildlife habitat, and strengthen long-term ecosystem function without chemicals, fertilizers, or excessive work. By removing invasive plants, strengthening native plant biodiversity, we reduce weeds and water needs, grow food, and provide habitat that requires less intervention over time.
Plant & Habitat Centered Maintenance
Water Conservation Landscaping
Rainwater Gardens, Bioswales, Erosion Control, Drought Tolerant Planting
Oregon native plants have evolved to handle water, so we mimic the natural processes of a native plant landscape by creating wetlands, bioswales, dry riverbeds, ponds, pools, and other forms of rainwater management. These nature-based systems help mitigate flooding, erosion, and runoff by holding water in the soil and supporting healthy ecosystems.
Oregon Native Plant Ecosystem Design
Liveable Native Plant Landscapes for Urban and Suburban Yards
From wet spots and dry corners to full-yard conversions, we design meadows, forests, wetlands, and natural play spaces filled with edible and useful native plants tailored to your site and lifestyle.
Designs to help you turn your lawn back into the beautiful wetlands, meadows, and lush native forests they used to be with Oregon native plant groupings that match site conditions, function as healthy ecosystems, create usable space, and become more resilient and self-sustaining over time.​
Founded in 2021, Urban Rewilding designs and builds Oregon native plant landscapes, forests, meadows, wetlands, and edible ecosystems throughout the greater Portland area.
Our team brings together diverse backgrounds with a shared focus on ecological restoration, regenerative landscaping, and creating healthy outdoor spaces that support both people and wildlife.
We specialize in low-maintenance native landscapes that improve biodiversity, soil health, stormwater absorption, and create habitat for pollinators and birds.
By working with nature—not against it—we create resilient Oregon ecosystems designed to thrive in the Pacific Northwest climate while helping build a more lush, biodiverse, and food resilient Portland.
Bre and her crew are great. They are on time, creative, hardworking, and seem to genuinely love working together. Bre has great ideas for problem areas and works with your budget.

the yard doesn't usually get many bird visitors (yet!) but this morning there was a handful of small birds hopping around, looking for-- and finding!-- worms to eat. and whenever i've been out there digging up weeds, almost every trowel-full of dirt reveals a worm
even in winter, the yard feels healthy and happy. thank you again so much for making this happen <3

Excellent! Working with urban rewilding has been a delightful and unfolding experience. They keep good care of my sizeable yard while wholeheartedly embracing their roles as stewards of the urban landscape and always making improvements here and there with each visit. Bre and her team have been a precious and indispensable partner in caring for the quarter acre serving as our first home.
