Luxury landscaping design, installation, and excavation for Goshen — the historic heart of Orange County.
Landscaping in Goshen
Goshen, the county seat of Orange County, is a village of distinguished charm and deep historical roots. Known as the 'Cradle of the Trotter' for its central role in harness racing history, Goshen's tree-lined streets, stately Victorian homes, and meticulously maintained village green create an atmosphere of refined permanence that few Hudson Valley communities can match. The village's architectural heritage — concentrated along Main Street, South Church Street, and the surrounding residential avenues — represents one of the finest collections of 19th-century residential architecture in the region.
The landscape character of Goshen reflects its identity as a prosperous, established community. Properties in the village feature mature specimen trees, established garden beds, and the kind of settled, layered landscape that develops over generations. The surrounding Town of Goshen extends into rolling horse country — the legacy of the harness racing tradition — with larger properties that offer sweeping views of the Orange County countryside and the distant Shawangunk Ridge.
Goshen homeowners bring exacting standards to their outdoor spaces. The village's architectural review consciousness means landscape designs must complement the historic character of the streetscape while meeting contemporary expectations for outdoor living. This balance — between preservation and innovation — is where our design expertise shines. We create outdoor spaces that feel as though they have always belonged to these properties, using traditional materials and proportions while incorporating modern amenities.
Located approximately 28 miles from our New Paltz headquarters, Goshen is well within our Orange County service area. We have completed projects throughout the village and the surrounding town, from formal garden restorations on Main Street to complete outdoor living builds on the horse-country estates. We understand the specific expectations of a community that takes pride in its appearance and demands craftsmanship that meets the standard set by the architecture itself.
