shows and other industry classes in order to offer our guests the latest
knowledge and service. Like a
well-tended garden, our staff is enriched with Michigan Certified
Nurserymen, Master Gardeners, landscape designers, certified pesticide
applicators and certified arborists.
Gardening is the first passion of all the staff at Shades of
Green. Just ask any one of them
about their personal garden and they will be delighted to share their
experiences! When you visit Shades

Landscaping Crew
Many of the team members on the landscaping crew have
been employed by Shades of Green for five years or more. Not only do they bring experience to each
job, they perform their work in an energetic and conscientious manner. Each day they set out with drive,
determination, and stamina to perform jobs that are hot, dirty, and
hard. The crews’
professionalism guarantees each project becomes a masterpiece! Due to ever-growing demands, we have
divided our men into three crews: the landscaping crew, the brick crew and
the maintenance crew.
