What We Do

Prairie Edge Landscape was established in 2003 by Steve Friedrich as a residential design/build company serving all of central Illinois.  As a registered landscape architect with a degree from the University of Illinois in ornamental horticulture specializing in landscape design, Steve’s goal was to create a uniquely personalized landscape experience for the client from conception to completion.  With 32 years of design experience, Prairie Edge prides itself in accurately determining the needs and desires of the customer and maximizing the potential of the site thru the design process using the largest and most diverse pallet of plant and stone materials available in the industry.

The finished product is only as good as the design but it is also only as good as the workmanship of those who install it.  Prairie Edge Landscape crews are comprised of master craftsmen including horticulturists, carpenters and masons.  Working in concert, the design team and landscape crews implement all design elements of the landscape plan thus eliminating the need for subcontractors and providing the homeowner with a cohesive installation process that results in a uniquely beautiful landscape project guaranteed to exceed their expectations.

“We chose Prairie Edge back in 2023 to complete our landscaping project, and it was one of the best investments we’ve made on our home. We had purchased our house back in 2019, and the back landscaping was very over run with hostas and weeds, as well as outdated shrubs in the front. It was going to be a huge undertaking to completely remove all that was there (as it went around the entire perimeter of our large fenced in yard), and this was the only company that I felt confident in their knowledge & abilities. I had reached out to 3 others, and it was clear that Prairie Edge was the way the go. Nick was fantastic in going over what my likes & visions were, discussing numerous edits to the design, before finally going forward with the plan. All the workers installing the project were also fantastic! Polite, hard working, and cleaned up well. Some plants even needed replaced a year+ later, and Nick was so easy to work with in getting them taken care of. Now instead of being overwhelmed spending time outside with my 4 year old because of the mess that our environment was, I enjoy every minute. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks Nick, and the fantastic install team.”
