Josh graduated from Illinois State University in 2000 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Agriculture Business.

He received the 2017 Pantagraph Readers’ Choice Award for ‘Best Lawn Care Service’ for the Bloomington, IL location.  Outside of work Josh enjoys spending time with his wife Beth, and their three children Emma, Reagan, and William.  He is a lifelong St. Louis Cardinals fan, and can often be found barbequing something delicious in his backyard.
