Imagine a landscape that only gets better over time. The distinction between a cheap landscape and a lasting landscape is defined by how the landscape establishes. That Lasting Beauty is what our Legacy Program is based on. Anyone can dig a hole, but landscapes that age beautifully, getting better over time, are installed in the best soil, which is customized to the site and plants, and installed using tier-1 quality standard planting practices. Your own team of HP Pros handles all the details of testing your soil, building the soil program, creating the landscape design, and installing the best plants with the best practices. This is landscape installation with the Experience-Driven Lifestyle in mind.
Our family-safe team of craftspeople utilizes our Legacy Method of landscape installation, engineered to last decades longer than traditional construction. We're proud to support that with a 10-year warranty on hardscaping, or 25 years if we're responsible for the maintenance. In 2019, High Prairie Outdoors became the first landscape installation company in Kansas City to win two national awards in the luxury design/build category, and we've continued to surprise and delight our clients with our high standards, personalized solutions, and open communication.
Our Experience-Driven Design Process is based on the three pillars of memory-making: how you relax, connect, and have fun. By focusing first on what matters, we're able to craft a landscape that supports the lifestyle you want to live. From plantings and pergolas to landscape lighting,pools, mulch installation, water features, walkways, and more, we account for every detail with an in-house team of degreed and certified professionals, eliminating any need for you to juggle multiple contractors. This is how we streamline your landscape installation project and set the stage for an outdoor space that embodies the Danish principle of hygge—coziness, contentment, and connection.
You’re probably wondering what you’re supposed to do after you’ve had all those plants installed. We’ll provide a care guide, but also offer comprehensive services to help you become a fully bonafide Legacy Club Member. Ways you’ll be able to receive continued care include: fine gardening programs, irrigation system monitoring, high-impact seasonal color rotations, landscape lighting additions, holiday lighting and display, and hardscape cleaning/servicing.
As a single-source service provider, we can design, craft, and nourish your landscape. Fill out our contact form to start your landscape installation in Kansas City, Missouri.

The High Prairie Process
Our Process: Discovery, Implementation, and Continued Care
Our processes create customized solutions to help you master the art of the experience-driven lifestyle. This is what to expect when you work with us on Design/Build projects or all-inclusive Maintenance:
Get In Touch
Fill out our online form to get started. We'll be in touch to discuss the details of your project to make sure we're a good fit for you. If so, we'll set up your Discovery Meeting and provide a pricing guide to help you know what to expect.
Discovery Meeting
This is a free meeting at our design studio, where you'll select a design package. You'll have an opportunity to meet your designer and share details about your unique design style. We'll learn about your priorities and preferences as we help you discover your many options and possibilities. At this time, we'll collect half of the design fee.
Site Analysis
The Site Analysis breaks down the three pillars of memory making: how you relax, play, and connect. It includes measurements, drainage and grading considerations, architectural and existing element analysis, soil analysis, and a review of design opportunities, all seen through the lens of your three pillars.
Concept Reveal Meeting
At our studio or remotely, this is where you'll review your detailed design and discuss material options with your designer. If there are budget considerations, we can discuss phasing the project as needed.
Final Design Reveal and Proposal Presentation
We'll finalize the materials and order your selections upon your approval. Your Prairie Power Team will create a project plan, complete with milestones and target tasks. As we work through planning and permitting, you'll receive weekly updates, and after you sign, we'll get you on the schedule.
Crafting Your Space
The team will work diligently and according to schedule. You can track our progress and watch your landscape unfold via our project web platform.
Final Walkthrough + Ongoing Maintenance
You'll do a final walkthrough with the designer, and we will accept the final payment. You’ll learn more about our worry-free maintenance program options and we can schedule your Lawncierge project check-ins for proactive attention and monitoring of your new space.
A Comprehensive Approach to High-End Outdoor Spaces
All of our services are completed by highly skilled crews equipped with specialized tools and landscaping know-how. With stonemasons, pool builders, horticulturists, and more on our team, we can complete 95 percent of our projects completely in-house, which means you’ll enjoy a stress-free build! As certified General Contractors, we can bring in electricians and plumbers as required, eliminating the need for you to juggle multiple contractors. This is what we can do for you:

Landscape Installation
