Bob – Owner/Operator
Growing up, one of his first jobs was mowing lawns which turned into landscaping homes around the neighborhood. His love of outdoors and entrepreneurship is what motivated him to open his own business in 1979, naming it Green Acres. Over the last 39 years in business, Green Acres has grown from a one man operation into a large family business specializing in all outdoor landscaping and hardscaping needs. Most days you can find Bob helping customers in the yard, loading trucks, and managing the entire business. His favorite part of coming to work each day, is getting to work with his wife, and children.
