Welcome to our Chapter

The Association of Professional Landscape Designers is an international organization that was formed in 1989 and is dedicated to promoting and supporting the highly qualified professional landscape designer.

The goals of APLD® are to:

  • Promulgate and encourage the Association's standards of practice
  • Keep landscape designers abreast of the latest information and developments in the field and broadening the field's scope of traditional landscape design to new and important areas such as management of the environment and the preservation of historically significant landscapes
  • Provide a forum for landscape designers to share ideas and learn from the experiences of others
  • Educate the public about the profession

The APLD New England Chapter represents APLD members in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Organized in 2005, the Chapter is committed to the common pursuit of the goals of the international organization.  The chapter organizes and participates in local events, provides workshops for members to develop their professional skills and educates the public to the merits of quality landscape design and the benefits of working with a professional landscape designer.

 
 

Looking for a Designer? 

The decision to hire a professional landscape designer can be one of the smartest investments you'll make toward enhancing your home and its setting. A landscape designer can work with you to turn that neglected corner into a garden sanctuary, or help you completely plan and furnish your outdoor living spaces with the creative use of plants, hardscaping, and other garden elements, resulting in a unified, balanced environment that you'll enjoy for years to come.

APLD® New England Chapter members continually hone their landscape design skills. Many of our members are Certified, which means they have submitted their work to a rigorous, juried peer-review process.

Find a qualified landscape designer for your project.
