Jim began his career in landscaping at a local nursery. He took great interest in landscape design and soon began doing work outside of his nursery job during his free time. As his natural talent for design grew, so did his desire to own his own business. In 1982 Jim purchased his first truck and began J. Downend Landscaping.
Unlike many others in this industry, he picked up a shovel instead of choosing to push a lawnmower. Jim spent the first five years in business installing landscapes until he brought his brother Joe on to begin his maintenance division. Jim has always stressed several important facts to his supervisors, crew leaders, and laborers.

Safety & Training
Report
The safety of our employees is our number one priority. However, unlike businesses with a fixed work location, our employees are out in the field where we cannot completely remove potentially hazardous conditions. To combat this, all of our employees are trained to safely use our equipment, identify onsite hazards, take precautionary steps to minimize those hazards, and provide first-aid in the event that an injury occurs.
