Firstly, I want to thank Brian Horn, editor of Lawn & Landscape, for presenting the opportunity to share my story through this monthly column and bring my dream to a reality. I remember as a kid reading this magazine in my father’s office and imagining how awesome it would be if I could one day be a columnist. I think it’s important to explain why I have committed to writing this column, as it all ties back to our purpose at my company K&D Landscaping, which is to raise the bar in the landscape industry.
