  <content>&lt;h2&gt;Our Company History&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At fourteen, owner Todd E. Pugh began mowing lawns to earn spending money and begin saving money for college.&amp;nbsp; After graduating from The Ohio State University in 1996, he incorporated his growing business and he renamed Todd&amp;rsquo;s Lawncare to Enviroscapes.&amp;nbsp; Strong business values and ethics have enabled Enviroscapes to grow from its first $5.00 per week mowing client into a multi million dollar landscape company.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Enviroscapes is known nationwide by its peers for award winning landscapes and&amp;nbsp;being a trend setter in LEAN business practices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our Team consists of degreed and certified personnel who are passionate about people, business and landscaping.&amp;nbsp; The Enviroscapes team manages a large scope of intricate and challenging projects on a daily basis.&amp;nbsp; We believe in a competitive work environment and challenge the Enviroscapes team to improve through scheduled evaluations, goals setting and performance indicators.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We take pride in the quality of our team.&amp;nbsp; We background check all employees and enforce a strict smoke free and drug free policy. Team Safety is one of our core values. We have worked with OSHA On-Site Consultation as well as built safety into all of our work processes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;LEAN Business Practices &lt;/b&gt;- Enviroscapes has adopted the LEAN management style and takes pride in finding ways to eliminate waste and add more value to our clients.&amp;nbsp; We have been able to stay competitive yet offer a better product each year due to our ability to drive out waste.&amp;nbsp; We do it by embracing change and constantly striving for improvement.&amp;nbsp; Our employees are at the core of all change.&amp;nbsp; An Enviroscapes employee is charged with the duty to continually question the way we do everything and is empowered to continually improve upon the &amp;ldquo;current state&amp;rdquo; of each work process.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
