Awards
Awards are an easy way to decipher if a landscape company is legitimate. Just like being “Featured”, be wary of companies who claim to be “Award-Winning” with very few real awards.
We were honored in 2019 to become Kansas City’s first luxury residential outdoor living company to win not one, but two national awards against companies all over the nation in the luxury design/build category. For the first and only time in Kansas City’s history, a company earned top three projects in the nation.
Curious about what kind of awards allow us to claim to be “Award-Winning”?
