Thank you for visiting Bee Kind Landscapes of State College, PA.

Going into our third season, we are taking on a limited schedule of new clients for 2026.

Our focus continues to shift toward native habitat restoration on acreage and showy meadow installations. Meadow installs are a phased, multi-year projects. Now booking 2029’s vibrant blooms, yes, it’s a process. We are becoming less equipment intense with most installs, and are offering lower per acre rates than past seasons. The downside is establishment takes a little longer, and chemical control of aggressive species is required. The upside is long term establishment is better.

We also started a small nursery operation to service our work, and hope to offer limited sales of native plants and trees in the 2027 season. Please inquire this season if interested. It absolutely helps us to know what there is demand for. Tree seedlings in rocket containers, anyone? If BKL could spread one trend to the world, let’s put the calipers away and plant more seedlings.

Most of our landscape maintenance work and hardscape construction projects are now serviced by trusted subcontractors - just an FYI. We don’t take a middleman cut, we are only paid for our services. We just like to be transparent.

Please call or text Joe at 814-531-5243 to inquire about services or just to chat native plants.

Thanks and looking forward to a great 2026 season,

Joe and the Bee Kind Family

5 Star Service

  • Joe at Ridgeline was fantastic! He gave a thorough, detailed estimate with several options to choose from to fit our budget, and prices were extremely reasonable. We had lots of weeds cleared, mulching, and edging done around our entire home. Joe’s attention to detail was much appreciated, and the job was done quickly and neatly! Our yard looks great now. He also went above and beyond in our front garden area, arranging our pavers into a pathway for us to reach the garden hose hookup. Joe was friendly and easy to communicate with and we highly recommend him! We already have plans to use him for an additional job in the spring.
