 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am a seasonal resident in Northern Michigan. Nate and company have been great to work with from the initial construction of my home and landscaping all the way through ongoing seasonal Maintenace.  It's very comforting to know my home landscaping requirements are always taken care of when I'm away and looking good when I arrive. Many thanks to them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I personally believe that Nate and his crew are top notch. From the spring cleaning, touch ups, to turning on the lawn sprinkler hydration system to the fall turn down and putting my yard to winter rest/sleep. I could easily keep Nate and team busy with our tweeks and adjustments. I have nothing negative to report on Nate Ogrady. Only positive things from my wife and myself.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a Great Team!  High quality work at reasonable cost.  We did a full landscape renovation of our home with high quality finishes and Nate's team really hit the mark.  They were here when they said they would be here, and site supervision was always there to talk to and get our questions answered.  They have all the tools to do the job right.  Can's say enough good things!

We’re not volume-based. Our in-house crews install and maintain every element with the same care you have for your property, including hardscapes and trees. We’ll take our time and treat your property with the respect it deserves.

We Know the Soil and the Seasons

Northern Michigan is our home. We understand when each type plant needs care or pruning in order to thrive here. That means you’ll have a landscape that still looks great years down the road.

Meet Our Team

Nate O’Grady

Founder and President

When Nate was young, he learned many valuable things while working aside his Dad every day in the family landscape business. That’s when he decided he would devote the rest of his career to being the best landscaper he could be.

Kasey Lofgren

Lead Designer and Installer

Kasey returned to Northern Michigan from Chicago in 2018 and quickly put his eye for design to work alongside his brother, Nate. As the creative force behind the company’s designs, Kasey is responsible for all landscape design concepts and CAD drawings, transforming ideas into detailed, build-ready plans. He also leads hardscape projects in the field, where his natural problem-solving and “puzzle-building” skills shine. Now transitioning into estimating for hardscape projects, Kasey brings his full-circle expertise in concept, design, installation, and budgeting. Outside of work, Kasey enjoys spending time on the golf course, where he’s always up for a good round.

Tyler Baldwin

Landscaping Specialist

Tyler joined our team in 2024, bringing with him nine years of experience in the tree service industry. He quickly assumed the leadership of our tree service division and played a key role in operations following the unprecedented ice storm northern Michigan received in March of 2024. Tyler is now transitioning into management of our landscape maintenance division, and we look forward to the positive impact and improvements he will bring to this area as well.Outside of work, Tyler enjoys spending his time outdoors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I schedule landscape maintenance?

It depends on your property and goals. Some clients prefer weekly or bi-weekly service during the growing season, while others just want seasonal cleanups in spring and fall. We’ll help you create a plan that works for your needs and budget.

What do your landscape maintenance services include?

Our maintenance programs typically include bed maintenance (weeding, edging, mulching), pruning, deadheading, seasonal plant care, debris cleanup, and other services we’ll recommend based on your property’s layout.

Do you mow lawns as part of your maintenance work?

In most cases, we consider lawn mowing a separate service. Our landscape maintenance services focus on garden beds, other plants, and overall landscape care instead.
