Knowledgeable gardener for natives and drought tolerant

Our long time gardener retired so we need a replacement one (or team) who has a good knowledge of and experience working with native, drought tolerant and pollinator attraction plants in the Berkeley-Oakland area. It would be helpful if the person or persons would be good at communication and reliability as well as being of a friendly nature. Our garden is on the small side, is flat and does not have grass. Thank for for your recommendations.

Hello! Fellow native-plant gardener here. I have enjoyed working with the team at Gold Finch Designs and think they would be a great fit for the garden that you have and the style of upkeep and personality that you're seeking. 

I'd highly recommend Will Boone (wrhblandscapes [at] gmail.com) I've recommended him elsewhere on BPN. He's knowledgable about native plants- he created a lovely garden of natives for me in my small yard. He's super reliable (he's helped me by taking care of the yard even when I  rented the house). He's also thoughtful, proactive, and great to work with. Happy to talk more if helpful.
