The name Eden Keeper is derived from Genesis 2:15 where the
duties given to the man included keeping the Garden of Eden.
Although the concept previously existed Eden Keeper finally got started in 2007, when several individuals began requesting help with landscape projects, and since early 2008 I have been licensed in Alabama to do landscape design, installation, and maintenance, with a market niche focused on Southeastern Native Plants, Edible Fruits, and/or Biblical Themes with a unique array of special services including building hiking trails, orchard layouts, habitat restoration, and geometrical designs such as labyrinths and/or mazes all created without using heavy equipment or chemicals (herbicides and pesticides), which helps keep costs down to a minimum.
Eden Keeper is located near Pisgah, Alabama, therefore, the primary service area is in the northeast corner of the state, although anywhere in the state is possible as well as in Tennessee based on that states reciprocal acceptance of the Alabama licenses to do installation and supposedly design and maintenance, and it is hopeful that this is the case for Georgia since it appears that Alabama has some higher standards for installation although at this time it uncertain whether an Alabama license for setting of landscape plants and/or landscape design is accepted in Georgia.
Pisgah means mountain top in Hebrew, and is named for where Moses went to view the Promised Land.

This website was created on Wednesday, December 17, 2008, using Website Tonight and a screen resolution of 1280 by 1024 and as of Christmas 2009, I have added over 900 pages. Many of those that are still under construction will give descriptions of the flora listed in the Featured Topics. I'm in the process of linking these pages so that you can step through those pages in each of the tours. Please be patient since there are over 700 of these pages and most are still under construction. The latest of the updates was February 17, 2010, which included edible plants through the grains to Allium L., and a calender update.
