Landscaping The Treasure Valley is an independent local publication for people who live, work, and garden in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Nampa, Caldwell, Kuna, Star, and nearby communities.

What you will find here

We cover the decisions that matter in a high-desert yard: water-wise design, irrigation, resilient plants, lawn alternatives, seasonal maintenance, outdoor living, and the real constraints of Treasure Valley soil and weather. Articles aim to be useful at the point of planning, whether you are improving one planting bed or starting with a blank lot.

Our editorial approach

Local context comes first. We favor specific planting windows, irrigation considerations, and city-level details over generic landscaping advice. When a recommendation depends on changing rules, costs, or local services, verify the current details with the relevant municipality, district, nursery, or extension office.
