Team

When starting out at age 12 as a young entrepeneur, I pushed wheelbarrows and drove tractors down the street to my neighbor's home to provide landscape services. I soon realized I loved creating beautiful landscapes, and seeing the joy this created in my clients' eyes. At age 14, I completed my Eagle Scout. For my final project, I naturally choose to install major landscape improvements into the trail system in Roseville. After hiring a few employees, at age 15, I soon developed the motto: "When Perfect Isn't Good Enough" and a mission of creating the Twin Cities' most beautiful landscapes. This motto and mission still stand true today. They have inspired us to build a business around the highest quality standards while creating truly breath taking landscapes, and forming long lasting relationships. Through the years of growth, we have assembled a team of amazingly talented individuals with the highest level of integrity. It has been very rewarding to be part of this remarkable organization.
