A huge shoutout to David, Eric and Alan for representing our Foster Lake team at the event.

This past week, North Carolina’s horticulture students shined at the 2025 National Collegiate Landscape Competition in Colorado.

Our West Charlotte Branch dedicated a day to Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina. Best mix of fun, hard work, and giving back.

Our Greensboro team spent an incredible Service Day volunteering at the Red Dog Farm Animal Rescue Network—a place giving second chances to animals in need, including those displaced by the Western NC hurricane.

Our previous Jordan Lake volunteering inspired our Apex crew to return for a shore cleanup day.

We hosted students from NC State University, Alamance Community College, Sandhills Community College, and the University of Mount Olive for a day filled with training, collaboration, and fun.

Now is the time to salt and sand early. Reach out now if you need our help preparing for the weather!

Today, we hosted local horticulture students at our Apex branch for an informative, hands-on turf workshop!

We continue to be inspired by the bright minds eager to learn and grow in our industry.

Our Apex branch shut down operations for a day of giving as we partnered up with Clean Jordan Lake and US Army Corps of Engineers to help with litter and trash removal. We worked along just a small stretch of the 100+ miles of shoreline that Lake Jordan has to offer.

Our east Charlotte branch hosted another student workshop this week. We delved into essential topics such as hardscape installation principles, irrigation troubleshooting and repair, and commercial landscape maintenance sales.

We discussed the main types of turfgrass found in North Carolina, concentrating on the Piedmont region. We also covered essential maintenance practices for year-round healthy turf, including treatment plans for common pests and diseases.

Learn why is the ideal season to lay the biological foundation for a thriving, productive fishery—and how we can help.

Routine pruning should follow the plant, the property, and the purpose—not simply the calendar.

Cyanobacteria (often called blue-green algae) looks and photosynthesizes just like algae—but can produce dangerous toxins. Check out our work before and after treatment.

Proper pruning keeps your community looking its best, supports healthy plant growth, and protects the long-term value of your landscape. Here’s what property managers should know.
