A Little Bit About Our Business...

Over the years people have asked me numerous questions about our business and what makes it tick, so I thought I would give you a bit of insight into our business. First off we are a family owned business, which operates in two arenas, crop consulting and  lawn care.

The crop consulting portion of Metcalf Land & Lawn is taken care of by my father, who is a contract crop consultant with Farmer's Grain Company. This job routinely takes him all across North Central, Oklahoma with the mission of helping farmers and ranchers take better care of both their land and the crops growing on them. This allows me the oppurtunity to manage the lawn care portion of Metcalf Land & Lawn with the help of my Aunt Rhonda and friend James Blom. Many of you have spoken to my Aunt Rhonda when you call the office with a job or a question.  You immediately notice she is always extremely pleasant to visit with and will bend over backwards to help in anyway she can. James Blom works with us on taking care of customers' lawns.  He has been with us for the past 2 years and is quick to learn anything he can about the business. Together we strive to bring professionalism to our industry and excellent service to our customers.  

People often times ask me what it is like to work with father everyday, and I'd be lying if I said it was always easy. I think we would both say it takes work from both sides. I'm younger (20's) and gung-ho, and he's more experienced (50's) and conservative. This creates the oppurtunity to see the world from both perspectives and allows us to hopefully meet in the middle. Don't tell him this, but the longer we work together, the more I think he may know what he's talking about.

Collectively Metcalf Land & Lawn prides itself on not just being "another" company in either the lawn care or crop consulting industry. We try to be cutting edge and innovative in what we do to provide our customers with a level of service that is second to none. Many people assume the lawn care industry for us is a cash grab business, that is only open certain times of the year. I can assure you it is not, we run this business full time and dedicate three people to serving our customers year round, if fact many of our customers have chosen a 5-step lawn care program that provides a multi-season approach to lawn maintenance. We approach things in the same manner whether it is January 1st or May 1st.  This is what we do.
