From the Owner
Picture this: back in 2012, fresh out of the military, there I was - just another guy with a truck, diving headfirst into the world of lawn care. The scene might sound familiar to many, but one fateful day, everything changed!
​
One of my clients was perpetually unhappy with a set of bushes in her yard. Every month, she'd reluctantly hand over $300 for me to trim what she really didn't love. But one sunny day, inspiration struck! I excitedly proposed, "Hey, instead of pouring money into something you're not fond of, how about we yank those bushes out and craft a landscape you'd truly adore?"
​
Her eyes lit up. She challenged me to sketch out my vision, and boom! From that spark of an idea, my landscape company sprouted up. And let me tell you, the journey from there was nothing short of exhilarating.
​
Rather than solely chasing growth, our mantra became saying a big, heartfelt "YES!" to our customers. Each one had their own dreams and quirks, and I tapped into an electrifying realization: they craved a trustworthy soul to turn their visions into reality. And I was burning with passion to be that beacon of reliability and creativity.
​
Fast forward to today, and our core remains unchanged. 🧡 We're here as people, for people, passionately crafting stories through landscaping. At our heart, it's about creating genuine connections. So, when you collaborate with us, expect not just a transformed yard, but a transformative experience that you'll cherish!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS
ARE SAYING
Jim - Champaign
During the last 45 years, as a commercial and residential R/E investor and operator, I’ve hired many different contractors. Kouski Landscaping Company is one of the very best I’ve had the pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Joel and his company, and my wife and I look forward to our next project with them."
Martha - Mahomet
We used Kouski to completely upgrade our backyard space. The work involved removal of a very large concrete pad and addition of a new patio, landscaping and sod. The work was outstanding, the guys worked incredibly hard and the results are terrific. I would definitely use Joel and his team again.
Jadie - Savoy
We hired Kouski to design and install a stone patio, fire pit and landscaping. Matt gave us great design ideas and made everything look even better than what I imagined. The crew was on time, friendly, and kept me in the loop as the work progressed. I'm very happy I chose Kouski to do the job.
