Celebrating Excellence at the National Collegiate Landscape Competition

We are thrilled to share some exciting news about two of our own team members, Jack and Anthony! They both recently competed in the prestigious National Collegiate Landscape Competition (NCLC), hosted by the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). Held at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, this year’s competition brought together approximately 600 students from over 50 schools across the country. The event featured 30 challenging events designed to showcase the skills of the best and brightest in the landscape industry.



The NCLC, a key event in the landscape field, has been held annually since 1977. The 2027 competition will be hosted in Ohio at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland. It’s a great opportunity for landscape students and professionals alike to engage in friendly competition, demonstrate their expertise, and network with industry leaders.


This year, Jack and Anthony represented our company with tremendous skill and professionalism. We couldn’t be more proud of their performances and the way they showcased the values we hold dear in the landscape industry.


Anthony's Achievements:

  • Top 30 Finish in Arboriculture

  • 10th Place in Landscape Installation


Jack's Achievements:

  • 7th Place in Business Management

  • 20th Place in Construction Estimating


Their hard work and teamwork truly stood out during the competition, and their impressive placements are a testament to their dedication to excellence in the landscape industry.


We also want to extend our congratulations to Columbus State Community College for placing 16th overall in this national event. Their success, alongside Jack and Anthony’s, highlights the caliber of talent emerging from top landscape programs across the country.


This competition serves as a reminder of the importance of skill, dedication, and passion in the landscape industry. Jack and Anthony’s accomplishments reflect not only their individual efforts but also the values we strive to uphold within our company.


Join us in congratulating Jack and Anthony on their exceptional performances and for representing us with such professionalism and enthusiasm at the NCLC. Their achievements are a shining example of what it means to excel in the landscape industry, and we look forward to seeing what they accomplish next.
