Ready Or Not. Hear Comes March Madness
It has been a short and strange winter. If you are like me, the unusually warm weather has me itching to get going with some real landscape work. Let’s make this spring better than ever. Here are some thoughts I have on how we can do just that:
- Work smarter, not harder – make sure we have all of our materials and tools on our trucks so we can hit each job hard and fast.
- Run the day – be prepared before we get to 6:30 am so there is no guess work during the “morning zoo”.
- Make each customer feel special – sometimes it is hard to remember that customers make it possible for us to work. Make them know they count.
- Take care of our family – just like customers, everyone who works here are Allentuck Landscaping Co. is special and deserves our appreciation.
In the madness of each day, sometimes it is hard to remember these for basic things. Let’s each try to do each one a little better ever day.
Thank you for everything you do to make Allentuck Landscaping Co. remarkable!

Living Our Core Values
As each of you know, sitting in a loader day after day, hour after hour, can be boring and tedious. It can also be very rough on the body. Unfortunately, that is what it took to “clean” and organize the field. The soil and debris piles had collected for 10 plus years and it was time to take care of the problem.
Felipe, David and Jesus were primarily charged with getting the job done. Each of them spent considerable time not only working in the loader, but also hand separating limbs and even trash. We now have a high quality topsoil to use in our projects and the field is organized and much neater. It was a thankless job but they never complained. The each kept plugging along and did an excellent job.
Having a can-do attitude is one of our Core Values.
