John Robert Beaudry

For more than thirty-five years, John Beaudry has been transforming ordinary outdoor spaces into living sanctuaries—places that slow people down, restore connection to nature, and become the most beloved spaces in their homes.

As the founder of Beaudry Garden Design in La Mesa, California, John has earned recognition as one of Southern California’s most respected landscape designers. His work has been featured in Architectural Digest and honored by San Diego Magazine’s Best of Design awards for its timeless beauty, emotional warmth, and deeply personal approach to outdoor living.

Through decades of experience, John discovered that the most meaningful gardens are not simply beautiful—they are restorative. They create peace, comfort, and connection in an increasingly overwhelmed world.

That philosophy became the foundation for Garden Sanctuary, a practical and inspiring guide that helps homeowners create outdoor spaces that nurture both the home and the soul.

John is also the founder of the Beaudry School of Design, an online educational platform where homeowners and garden enthusiasts can learn his signature design process through courses, mentorship, and community.

He lives and gardens in La Mesa, California.
