Welcome to Gardens by Gabriel
Gardens by Gabriel is a collective of craftsmen, artists, and designers headed by owner and operator, Gabriel Frank. GBG, license # 887028, is a fully bonded and insured company based in San Luis Obispo.
Our main crew is composed of 3 individuals: Daniel Myers, Mindy Renee, and myself, Gabriel Frank, graduate of NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN SCHOOL OF PROFESSIONAL HORTICULTURE. Keeping a small core crew allows us to focus on detail and quality, at every stage in the garden. When creating a more complex landscape, no matter the size, we incorporate into our team specialists in fine carpentry, concrete work, and masonry.
Alone or with an expanded crew, we excel at creating distinctive landscapes. Our work has recently won an Obispo Beautiful award, and multiple gardens have been featured in the San Luis Tribune. (Please visit our PRESS page for more information.)
