In 2014, Remillard’s business began to make another change as she transitioned out of corporate landscape management and nursery sales. “Drought has really impacted what is successful and what is sustainable to suggest,” she says. That sensitivity to nature’s will has proved to be a vital business asset, as her designs have had to change with California’s increasingly arid conditions. “The premise of Nature’s Designs is that we utilize natural elements and work in sync with the ecology of each individual site so that the plans are perfectly suited for each garden,” Remillard says. In keeping with her multidisciplinary background, Natures Design has always been environmentally conscious. “I started out with a goal of being a garden designer, but I wanted to have a really broad base to draw on, so I studied garden design and I also studied landscape management and nursery production.” Remillard subsequently attended Santa Rosa Junior College at the age of 26 to pursue a horticulture degree.
“The thing that I liked most besides being with my children was working in my garden,” she says. Remillard’s interest in gardening was realized organically, while she was a young mom staying at home with her son and daughter.
