Mendez has been in the commercial landscape industry since 1999 and became the owner of a US Lawn franchise about five years ago. He specializes in native and sustainable solutions. Mendez has worked with the University of Georgia to design and build sustainable gardens to showcase native plants.
“We bring in the municipality and other city officials and show them how native plants can reduce the toxic chemicals we need to use in our environment,” Mendez explained. “When plants are native, they are naturally resistant to things like drought and local insects, which means they will require less care to thrive.”
Using EcoMIGHT in his business fits perfectly with Mendez’s overall mission to care for the environment and reduce the toxins being used.
