Much to everyone's surprise, including my brother Andy, his landscape design company was featured in "Best of the Twin Cities 2007" in December's Minnesota Monthly. Andy is a 1994 graduate of the Northfield High School. In 2003 Andy and his good friend Mike Hart, also of Northfield, decided to leverage their homes towards equipment and a business plan that included high-end designs, superior customer service & life-long quality. Today they have grown into a thriving mid-size company.

Andy was called by former Northfield News journalist Joel Hoekstra on a whim and was asked to show up for a photo shoot. After a brief interview Andy was on his way. He didn't expect to be included as one of the top 101 Twin City businesses. It was definitely an honor for him to be seen in this beautiful layout. Joel is the managing editor of the publication. I believe their segment on Andy & Mike's company says it all.
