Why Landscaping? My first career job out of college was partnering with my brother in his landscape business in Atlanta. It was there that I fell in love with the outdoors, horticulture and the satisfaction I got seeing a happy customer. Later, I had a career in the metal fabrication industry but in the idle time of retirement my passion for landscaping impelled me to start another landscape business. As we’ve grown, some very talented and dedicated team members have joined us and being part of this great team is really the best part of this whole endeavor.
