MEET COLLEEN
Colleen loves helping DO-IT-YOURSELFERS figure out what to do with their yards. (Even better than driving out to her favorite BBQ joint in Lexington, Texas. YES!! Believe it!!)
Since founding Red Wheelbarrow over twenty years ago she’s helped transform hundreds of yards in Central Texas.
PHILOSOPHY
She believes yards are extensions of homes, financially and emotionally. And she takes to heart her role in increasing the property’s value – and enhancing the client’s peace of mind. Landscaping projects can cause anxiety and Colleen’s goal is to alleviate that anxiety.
She believes in creating lush, sustainable green spaces – safer for families, neighbors, pets and wildlife.
