Ashley Fullerton’s Story
Founder of Grass Roots Landscaping
Thank you for visiting Grass Roots Landscaping. My name is Ashley Fullerton, founder and owner of this Marin County-based landscape and gardening service. For over 30+ years, I’ve delighted clients by harmonizing nature with their homes.
Born and raised on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, my love for plants began early, helping in my mother’s herb and flower garden. After earning a business degree and moving to San Francisco in 1989, I fell in love with Northern California’s landscape and year-round growing season. Three years later, a gardening class reignited my passion for nature, leading me to leave my corporate job and pursue horticulture full-time at the College of Marin. Studying under renowned horticulturalist Louis Hunt, I merged my business knowledge with a deep understanding of Bay Area horticulture. I’ve worked with clients from the Ritz Carlton to local homeowners, and I’m proud of the long-term relationships I’ve built.
When not gardening, you’ll find me practicing yoga and strength training in the San Geronimo Valley, visiting Cape Cod, and spending time with my husband and two sons.
“We have loved working closely with Ashley Fullerton for more than twenty years on landscaping projects both at our home in Lagunitas and where we have worked at the San Geronimo Valley Community Center and the San Geronimo Valley Community Gym and Youth Center. Ashley and her Team at Grass Roots Landscaping have supported us in making our home environment and our community-based environments beautiful and welcoming. Ashley’s designs are creative, fit in perfectly with the surrounding landscaping and bring much joy to the people who experience the spaces.”
