I’ve noticed many of you have been visiting this page lately and I wanted to share an update. Over the years I haven’t always posted regularly — mostly because I forget to take pictures of my work (always either the before OR the after, rarely both 😅). But please know, the gardens, designs and projects have continued to flourish.

💚 For the last 15 years, LeBlanc Oasis has been a space where I’ve poured my passion for creating beauty and meaning through gardens. And while I still offer garden design and consulting, my focus has naturally evolved.

🌸 My new venture, "Rooted Resilience" grows directly out of this path. Here, I combine my design background, herbal training and love for nature to help people create healing, medicinal and purposeful gardens:
🌱 Apothecary gardens designed around your unique health needs
🌿 Medicinal tea gardens to support wellness
🌸 Walks on your land to identify the healing plants already growing there
🍃 Guidance on how to harvest and use your own herbs safely

This feels like the next natural chapter — blending the practical with the healing and the landscape with the apothecary.

✨ Thank you for being part of my journey through LeBlanc Oasis. If you’d like to follow along with my new path, come visit me at Rooted Resilience 🌿 where I’ll be sharing plant walks, herbal wisdom and healing garden consulting.

With gratitude,
Chantal LeBlanc

Here are only a few of the many projects I've worked on over the years.

Bringing a Vision to Life – A Behind-the-Scenes Look at My Latest Landscape Design Project

Last summer and fall, I had the opportunity to collaborate on a truly inspiring project. A local landscaping company reached out to me for a special client looking for a complete yard transformation. While the company had the equipment and skilled crew, they needed guidance when it came to design, plant knowledge, and creating a cohesive vision that truly reflected the client’s goals. That’s where I stepped in.

My Role in the Project:

Client Consultation & Visioning: I began with a detailed needs analysis, listening closely to the client’s ideas, lifestyle, and goals. We explored multiple concepts together until we landed on a final design that felt just right.

Sourcing & Materials: While sourcing plants and elements for the project, I stumbled across 80 beautiful, aged foundation rocks. When I presented the idea of using them to the client, it was love at first sight! We secured them all to become the heart of the design.

On-Site Project Management: Working hand-in-hand with the contractor, I carefully directed the installation process—selecting one rock at a time to build a natural, informal rock wall. Every stone was chosen and placed with intention to ensure a harmonious flow. I also was responsible for the plant installations.

The result? A unique and organic outdoor space that exceeded the client’s expectations. This was Phase A of the transformation, with more exciting developments coming this spring for the front and side yards—stay tuned!

For Landscaping Companies & Contractors:
If you have the crew and equipment but need someone to bridge the gap between your client’s vision and what’s possible on the ground, I can help. I provide landscape design, client consultation, concept development, sourcing and on-site project direction to help bring it all together—beautifully and professionally.

Over the past few years, I have shifted my focus from landscape installation and maintenance to personalized garden coaching, design and project management. I now help homeowners professionally care for their yards by providing expert guidance on maintenance schedules, plant selection, pruning techniques, home gardens and herbal medicine gardens. Whether you're starting a new garden, growing herbs and vegetables or improving your landscape, I offer customized solutions to fit your needs.

Also, will work with other contractors or home owners that have the labour and equipment to install larger design projects. I will meet with the client, create a design and coordinate with contractor and his team to manage the installation of the project, insuring quality control. I have been working on various projects last 3 years, I just haven't been good at posting my projects. Don't hesitate to contact me for extra details on my portfolio.

Working on a long term reforestation project in Cap Pele. Back in 2019 hurricane Dorian hit New Brunswick and made lots of damage in Cap Pele and Shediac. This couple from New York had a large part of their forest destroyed on their private waterfront property. I'm now tagging sick and dead trees to be cut, identifying new native trees that are growing to clear around the tree so they can thrive and planted 22 trees and more to planted. Thanks to my dad for helping me out.

Been working on this amazing property all week and the weather was fantastic. Client looking to have all beds refreshed, weeded, top dress rocks, substitute plants for new ones, tree and shrub trimming and dividing plants. These are all the before pictures. Will keep you posted on the after photos.
