About Us

Wise Hands started with the idea that unique, intelligently designed, and ecologically friendly landscapes need regular maintenance and care by people who know plants. We are a small detail landscape maintenance company that can nourish a truly beautiful and unique landscape with the expertise it needs to thrive. We focus on natural landscapes, Florida native plantings, and wildlife gardens. Owners, Stefan Babjak and Malory Foster, along with their talented crew, can help make your space a place you love to be in and observe. We work in Pinellas County and South Tampa, Florida.

What We Are Not

We are not your typical mow, blow, and go crew. Our approach takes time, a deep knowledge of plants, patience, and an understanding that transforming a landscape is a process. We focus on landscapes that don’t include much turfgrass, and we can help transition our clients away from sod-heavy landscapes. Our tools of the trade include hand weeding, pruning, planting, and gradual transformation. The few electric tools we occasionally use are much quieter than gas-powered machinery. You won’t even know we’re there until you walk outside and are greeted by a lush, biodiverse garden and delicious food to eat right at your home.
