A homeschool project that got out of hand

Our company actually started in 2001 when Steven was only 14 years old. As Steven was being Home Educated, one of his school projects was to develop and implement his own business. Through this process, he brainstormed and created the company name, created plans, acquired loans for equipment, advertised, and built a small clientele. By the end of the growing season that year, because of learning about budgeting and planning, Steven paid for all of his equipment and purchased a four wheeler and trailer.

After the tragic events that happened on 9/11/01, Steven asked his Dad (Barry) to work together as a family. Barry was currently working in the Defense Department, 22 years, 18 years as a Quality Assurance Representative and 4 years in the Air Force. Our family prayed about the life changing decision and ultimately felt led to work as a family.

With that decision, Steven drove around several neighborhoods on his four wheeler, because he couldn’t drive yet, and asked people for their business. In March 2002, Barry resigned from the Defense Department, we incorporated the business, and began this great adventure. Some of our clients still talk about the first time they met Steven on his four wheeler and are amazed at where the company is today.

For many years, we operated as a home based business with Mom, Dad, Son, and Sister, and hired seasonal help when needed. We quickly outgrew the home-based model and expanded to our current location with space for equipment and office space for our growing workforce. Through the years we’ve hired exceptional employees who have worked to build their own dreams as well.

Our business has gone through many chapters over the years and we’re always excited to see what future chapters bring. We hope you’ll come along for the ride.
