Answer
NOFA (Northeast Organic Farming Association) maintains a database on their web site that you can search, using your zip code to find accredited organic land care professionals. Services include consulting, installation, landscape architecture and maintenance, as well as other services. These landcare professionals have completed NOFA coursework, adhere to the organization's standards and best practices and take yearly trainings.
See this page of the NOFA web site for their database of accredited organic land care professionals.
