Landscape Crew Leader
Mike started his landscape experience at Suffield Country Club, where his love for the outdoors grew as he did planting, mulching and plant care. Mike enjoys helping customers feel comfortable with their landscape as they watch it come together before their eyes. After starting at The Garden Barn in 2002, he loves the self-motivated attitude that his coworkers embody and the local family-owned atmosphere. Mike’s favorite plant is the Blue Atlas Cedar, because it is such a versatile plant that can be used to accentuate a house. Outside of work, Mike enjoys spending time with his dog Caumley and hanging out in his man cave where he cheers on Tennessee football. People would be surprised to know how much Mike gives back to his community. Mike coaches youth football in Enfield, road racing and stair climbs for the American Lung Association. In the future, Mike hopes to travel to Knoxville, TN, as well as Ireland. He also hopes to foster some pit-bulls, as he finds them the most loyal and loving dogs. When he no longer can install landscapes he hopes to work in a greenhouse.
