About
The Owner
Scott Walker
I was born and raised in Durham, NC in the community of Pleasant Green.
I graduated from NC State in 2000. I then moved out west and started working
for a lawn care company that specialized in organic fertilization and organic
weed control. After working for them for 4 years I  moved
back to Durham to start my own company. My intention was to provide customers
with a fertilization/weed
control program that used both organic and synthetic products. As I studied
for my pesticide license and learned more about the threats they pose to
people and the environment I started to second guess my decision to use
synthetic pesticides. After thoroughly researching the topic I became more
and more concerned. The current use and abuse of synthetic pesticides by
the lawn care industry is alarming and in large unnecessary. I then decided
I would not be part of this problem but rather part of the solution. (Please
read " Poison in the
grass")
So what is the solution? Organics. I decided I would only
use products that were safe for people, their kids and pets, and the
environment in
which  they live. Not only are my products and procedures safe they are
effective and in many cases work better than synthetics.
How do I know?
I practiced organic lawn care for 4 years and saw excellent results and
more than satisfied customers.
Now it's your turn to be part of the solution.
