Landscaping has never felt like a job, I find it relaxing and fulfilling. My passion is to encourage others to find their love for landscaping, gardening, and outdoor living if they have not made that discovery yet. The way to do that is to provide an abundant resource to encourage all of that.
That was my motivation to establish Paulino Gardens, the bountiful resource surrounding landscaping, gardening, and outdoor living. Another purpose of the site is to provide ample information and inspiration to avid landscapers and gardeners.
Paulino Gardens provides you with the elite information you need on landscaping advice, as well as gardening and information on flowers and plants. The site also provides you with much information on treehouses, birdhouses, and designing your garden.
There is also a hands-on review section for landscaping and gardening tools and equipment and outdoor furniture and appliances written and recommended by the contributors and myself.

Scott was still the creative type, and since he had a desire to work in a field involving the outdoors, he decided to go into landscaping when he was in high school.
After high school, he had post-secondary training in landscaping and worked as a junior landscaper in a co-op program. After finishing the program, Scott began working full-time as a landscaper at the company where he worked during his co-op program.
Scott is married with two sons and a German Shepherd, and he enjoys hanging in his treehouse with his boys. His family enjoys going on nature walks and camping excursions.

Pamela Clapton
Content Consultant & Photographer
Pamela Clapton was born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska, and she had the advantage of living in an area with gorgeous scenery. After getting a disposable camera for her birthday, Pamela began taking pictures of the lovely outdoor view with it.
Her interest in photography flourished as she matured. When she had time off during the summer when she was in high school, she traveled to the Arctic and took pictures of the coastal plains and picturesque fjords, among other elements.
Pamela attended the University of Alaska, achieved her Bachelor’s in Photography, and now specializes in landscape photography. She is also a worthwhile contributor to Paulino Gardens.
After Pamela got married, she moved to San Diego, California, and works as a landscape photographer. Pamela is married with two children, has a dog and a cat, and enjoys going to the beach, traveling, and camping.
She hopes her children someday share the same interest in photography that she had since she was young. However, Pamela supports the path that her children choose even if it is not in photography.
She works as a content consultant and photographer at Paulino Gardens.
