Rick Kruszewski is a thirty-nine-year landscape industry veteran, with diverse experience in landscape enhancements and landscape lighting. 

Originally from Michigan, Rick holds a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree from Michigan State University. He worked for a large commercial landscape company in metro Detroit before he opened his own design/contracting firm in 1993.   His business focused on new residential landscape designs, hardscapes, decks, irrigation and lighting projects.  His designs earned him local environmental improvement awards.

Rick prides himself on selecting the best materials and never compromising on quality.  He takes a hands-on approach building relationships with our clients and bringing to life their landscape ideas.

 “Rick’s knowledge and experience in landscape design, nursery sales, construction estimating and project management is a wonderful asset to our company and our clients”, commented Anne Check, Senior Project Manager/Construction Sales and MOG member.
