Since it doesn't move much , how old is everyone here? How long did you guys have your business and what made you do landscaping ?

16, had my buisness for 2 years going into my third. I got into this because my father did snow removal so it seemed logical for me to offer summer maintenance. How about you?

Nice! Me I'm 23, I started 4 years ago, I worked since I was 14 for a landscaper who showed me everything. I went to study marketing in school and realized I was missing the landscaping very bad. So that's how I started! Now since the last 4 years my company is getting bigger and bigger every year I now have a few trucks, zero turns, tractor . this year I should have be 4 full time employee and a few part time. We also expended to do interlock, hedge trimming basically everything regarding landscaping

I am fixing to be 40, and have been at it since 2000 I do mostly lawn cutting but I do mulch, and landscaping every once in awhile. I am thinking of opening a equipment repair shoppe this spring but I havent decided yet I do work on alot of mowers, and equipment already. I do everything from mowers to straw throwers, chainsaws, etc so I might as well be legit I guess. I commend you younger guys out there that are working because some in my area dont want to grow up, and be responsible. They would rather be goofing off, or sitting around doing nothing.
