Lincoln Park neighborhood. The narrow alleyway, mature shade trees, tall fence and confined work area limited the team’s choices of equipment to a skid steer loader. The company created a private area for entertaining and relaxing, complete with two bluestone patios, a curved path and stone planters constructed from limestone. The project took 450 man-hours to complete.
Lawn & Landscape’s panel of industry judges selected Kinsella Landscape from the field of six semi-finalists based on the merits of their project’s design, overall appeal, material selection and workmanship.
Kinsella Landscape is supported by a team of highly trained professionals with an aggregate experience of more than 150 years. The company “creates lifestyles from the outside in” by providing exceptional service using the best practices in the green industry.
Look for a complete story about Kinsella Landscape in the January 2011 issue of Lawn & Landscape magazine.
Five other semi-finalists were selected by Lawn & Landscape magazine throughout the year:
| • | Green Works Environmental, LLC, Allenwood, N.J. |
| • | K Morris Landscape Design, Inc., Oakdale, Pa. |
| • | C&S Landscaping of Virginia, Strasburg, Va. |
| • | Rain Men Landscaping and Irrigation, McDonald, Pa. |
| • | Sycamore Springs Landscape, Reading, Pa. |
The semi-finalists received $250 worth of New Holland merchandise, and will have their project highlighted in an issue of Lawn & Landscape.
