As President of Morton’s Landscape Development Company it is my duty to see the “big picture” and to surround myself with the right people to keep us moving forward. I try to instill the same work ethic in my people that has gotten myself and Morton’s to where we are today. Having been a carpenter by day building bridges, a sheetmetal worker by night, and laying concrete on weekends I learned early the struggles of supporting a family and getting ahead. To pick up some extra income I started mowing lawns throughout Northeast Ohio. Though a side job, I soon realized I had a small business blossoming. A short time later I had crews out mowing on their own while I expanded and started to build decks and sculpting landscapes. It was at this time when I had to make a decision to go full bore into landscaping or return to construction. With the help of my son Morton’s has grown steadily throughout the years. Today we run four divisions, Lawn Maintenance, Erosion, Air-O-Mulch, and Landscape Construction. We have a full time Landscape Architect and sales team. All of this made possible by perseverance and having the right people with the same vision, drive, and work ethic that I maintain to this day.
