Although founded in late 2015 by Jared and Matt Winters, Next 2 Nature Landscape Company’s story did not begin here. Jared and Matt started their journey within the landscape industry at a young age. Growing up working within a family-owned greenhouse, it was here the two brothers quickly realized their talent for the green industry. Collectively, with their knowledge learned at a young age in the family greenhouse, to working at a local landscape company and finally, completing their respective horticultural degrees, a business relationship was formed. With a shared vision on how landscapes should be approached and installed, Next 2 Nature Landscape Company was founded
