Working with Peter has been great! Very patient despite numerous changes as well as stops and starts. We are in our first phase and the front of our home looks awesome! Can't wait to work on phase 2!!

I highly recommend Campbell Ferrara for any landscaping needs! Their team is professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled. They transformed my yard into a beautiful space, exceeding my expectations. From the initial consultation with Peter to the final touches, the entire process was seamless. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality is impressive, and they always left the area clean and tidy after each visit. If you’re looking for a landscaping company that delivers top-notch service and stunning results, Campbell Ferrara is the one to call!

Campbell & Ferrara has provided beautiful solutions for my landscaping needs. Peter Rhyne is very knowledgeable, has excellent ideas, is easy to contact, and is quick to respond. He cares about the environment and uses natives when possible. The crews are consistently on time, very hard-working, helpful, and friendly. I know if they plant it, it will survive. Clean-up is superior. One of the best things about Campbell & Ferrara is the outstanding quality of their plants.I’ve lived in my house for decades and used several landscape design firms. Campbell & Ferrara is the best I’ve found by far. Highly recommend!B. Zimmer

My front yard was filled with mature shrubs and was definitely in need of a refresh. I had used Campbell and Ferrara many years ago with excellent results so they were my first and only choice. I was very happy with the professional and pleasant Campbell and Ferrara staff--from the landscape designer, Jeff Trafidlo, to Oscar, the crew chief, and all the workers. Jeff listened to what I wanted and made good suggestions. The work was done in a timely manner removing the old and replacing with beautiful new shrubs. The crew left the yard and surrounding hardscape cleaner than they found it. Heartily recommend!

We are very pleased with the transformation of the front of our house and the hillside by our pool. The crew was so hardworking and efficient. They did a beautiful job creating Peter's landscaping design for us even though the topography of the hillside wasn't easy to work with. We highly recommend Campbell & Ferrara and Peter Rhyme.

We interviewed several companies before settling on Campbell & Ferrara (and more specifically Chris!) and couldn't be happier with our choice. Not only are we extremely happy with the end result, but we so appreciated the flexibility with our ever-shifting timeline due to a delayed construction project with another company. Highly recommended!

Chris Myers was a joy to work with, as he and the Campbell Ferrara team installed outdoor stone steps and then transformed our overgrown North Arlington backyard into a native plant oasis. Chris brings to the job a keen eye for design, an extensive knowledge of plants and a collaborative approach that accommodates the sometimes-inarticulate wants of the client.

Peter was an invaluable partner in creating a hardscape and landscape design that met our needs and desires. Intelligent, communicative, and caring. Look forward to an ongoing partnership on our homeownership journey.

We knew our new home needed new landscaping, hardscaping, and outdoor lighting, but we didn’t even know where to begin. Peter came up with a beautiful new design and was so helpful, innovative, and patient throughout the whole process. We didn’t want him to leave us when the project was done—he is the Yard Whisperer!
