Maximizing Small Spaces - Landscaping Ideas for Small Outdoors

Cindy Dalecki • Jun 20, 2021

Some of the homes in Ormond by the Sea and Ormond Beach have small yards. That doesn’t mean you can’t have a beautiful outdoor space. In this blog post, we’ll share landscaping ideas for small spaces. From vertical gardens to container gardening, you’ll learn how to maximize your small outdoor space and turn it into a green oasis.

Living in a small space can be a challenge, especially when it comes to outdoor areas. However, with some creativity and planning, you can transform even the tiniest of outdoor spaces into a beautiful and functional oasis. Here are some landscaping ideas to maximize small spaces in urban areas.

Vertical Gardens: One of the best ways to maximize space in small outdoor areas is to use vertical space. Vertical gardens are perfect for growing herbs, flowers, and even vegetables. You can use hanging baskets, wall-mounted planters, and trellises to create a lush and vibrant green wall. Not only do vertical gardens look beautiful, but they also help purify the air and provide shade and privacy.

Multi-functional Furniture: When space is at a premium, it’s important to choose furniture that serves multiple purposes. For example, you can use a bench with built-in storage to store outdoor cushions and gardening tools. A folding table and chairs can be easily stored when not in use, and a bar cart can double as a plant stand.

Lighting: Lighting is an important aspect of any outdoor space, but it’s especially important in small spaces. Use string lights or lanterns to create a cozy and intimate atmosphere. You can also use solar-powered lights to save on energy costs.

Creative Paving: Another way to maximize small outdoor spaces is to use creative paving. Instead of traditional concrete, consider using pavers or stepping stones to create a unique and visually interesting walkway. You can also use gravel or mulch to create a low- maintenance garden bed.

In conclusion, living in a small space doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice having a beautiful and functional outdoor area. With some creativity and planning, you can transform even the tiniest of spaces into your own personal oasis. Incorporating vertical gardens, multi- functional furniture, lighting, and creative paving are just a few ways to maximize small spaces.

Breast Cancer Awareness and Kennedy Landscaping: Joining Hands for the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" Program Breast Cancer is a battle that is fought every day by thousands of women, and their loved ones, across the world. Every year, October marks the Breast Cancer Awareness Month where businesses, organizations, and individuals take the initiative to support, educate and raise awareness about the disease. At Kennedy Landscaping, we strongly believe that every little step counts, and together, we can make a big difference in the fight against Breast Cancer. This October, Kennedy Landscaping is proud to support the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program, an initiative that seeks to raise awareness and funds to fight Breast Cancer. We want to take this opportunity to share our journey and how we plan to help make strides this year. As a landscaping company, we know that the outdoors play a significant role in the fight against Breast Cancer. According to studies, being physically active and staying fit helps reduce the risk of Breast Cancer. Moreover, being close to nature is scientifically proven to have several health benefits. With that in mind, we have organized a Breast Cancer Awareness Walk this October 17th, where we will invite our clients, family, and friends to join us for a morning of physical activity, fresh air, and fun. In addition to our Breast Cancer Awareness Walk, we will donate 5% of our proceeds in October towards the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program. Our aim is to show our support for the warriors, survivors, and those still fighting the disease. At Kennedy Landscaping, we take Breast Cancer Awareness Month very seriously, and we believe that our support can help save lives and make a difference in our community. Our message to everyone is, "Stay strong, Stay informed, Stay supported, and never lose hope. We stand with you, and together we can beat Breast Cancer." We would like to invite everyone to join us this October as we take the initiative to support the "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program. By doing so, we are making a difference, and we encourage other businesses and individuals to do the same. We appreciate your support and would like to remind everyone that early detection is the key to saving lives. Please make sure you schedule your mammogram appointments this year. We look forward to seeing you at the Kennedy Landscaping Breast Cancer Awareness Walk this October. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, and Together, Let's make strides!
