not just a business, it is a way of life
Kyle and David Stevenson of Stevenson’s Landscaping
I, David Stevenson, started my love of plants and nature growing up on a farm in Iowa with my family. I started my Landscaping career in 1976, after earning a degree in Horticulture from the Hawkeye Institute of Technology in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Following this formal education, I landed a job as a supervisor for a large tree nursery, where I stayed for three years. In 1980 I moved to California to accept a management position with a large landscaping company based in Southern California. Luckily, my new job position was in Northern California. For over eight years, I supervised various landscaping crews for private sector businesses, including over 30 HUD housing complexes throughout Northern California.
Stevenson’s Landscaping began by performing commercial and residential landscaping design, maintenance, and irrigation system installation. Most of the company’s clients have retained our services for over ten years. Stevenson Landscaping has two maintenance crews and one crew that does landscape construction consisting of eight employees. Most of the employees have been with the company for over five years. Stevenson’s Landscaping employees are responsible and dependable, and they put much pride in their work. The crews work throughout Santa Cruz and Santa Clara Counties.
On my life’s journey, I married a wonderful lady, Fatima, and we have a son named Kyle, a great blessing and a partner in the business. He graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in 2014 with a Plant Science degree and decided to work for the family business. With Kyle on board, running a business is much more enjoyable.
Stevenson’s Landscaping prides itself on providing quality service and caring for each client’s needs. We specialize in water-efficient landscaping and have experience with drought-tolerant planting installation. My love for nature and plants is reflected in every job my team and I complete. We strive to create a beautiful and sustainable outdoor environment for each client.
Our team have received numerous awards for exceptional work, including the Santa Cruz County Green Business Certification and the California Landscape Contractors Association Achievement Award.
When I’m not busy with my business, I enjoy traveling, biking, hiking, camping, and spending time outdoors with my family and friends. For me, Stevenson’s Landscaping is not just a business; it is a way of life, and I hope to continue to share my love of nature with our clients for many more years to come.
