Our Story

Name: Doug Phelps
Address: Spokane, WA, 99203, US
Telephone: (509) 999-8104

Our business started from a love for the outdoors and for home. The place where those come together is not just your yard. It is your own slice of nature - your connection to the outdoors.

We can help you design and build your ideal outdoor space. Whether that means a low maintenance native rock garden or a wild mix of color in a cottage garden, we would love to help.

Building healthy soil and conserving water are important considerations in all of our projects - whether that means a thought. Ask us about the benefits of drip irrigation. Or let's talk xeriscapes!

We Are
SpokaneScape Certified

At 2nd Nature, we wholeheartedly believe in reducing water use by implementing a variety of Conservation Irrigation practices and the use of Drought-Tolerant Plants in our projects. That is why we partner with the City of Spokane's amazing SpokaneScape program.

SpokaneScape incentivizes homeowners to convert conventional landscapes into low-water landscapes that have a number of other benefits like increasing pollinator habitat. A variety of rebates are available through this program. We can help by designing and converting your lawn into a perennial garden rich in pollinators, flowers, and so much more.

More information about the City's program can be found in the following link:
