Home of the Oneida Nation west of Green Bay, Oneida blends wooded country, farmland, and residential lots.
The Oneida community sits west of Green Bay on the lands of the Oneida Nation, where Duck Creek winds through a landscape of woods, farmland, and homes. It's a mix of settings, each with its own needs.
We travel north to the Oneida area for projects that fit, bringing owner-supervised design, planting, and drainage work suited to wooded and rural ground.
Wooded lots bring shade and competing tree roots, so we lean on shade-tolerant natives and honest soil prep. Near Duck Creek and the low areas, drainage comes first, and on the open ground we keep things durable and low-maintenance.
