In this episode of The Green Grind, Kory and LeRoy sit down with Bob Scott, owner of Lowe's Greenhouse in Bainbridge, Ohio. Bob shares how he and his partner transitioned from running a small landscape design/build company to acquiring a third-generation greenhouse and garden center. The conversation dives deep into the complexities and opportunities of vertical integration in the green industry — from growing and selling plants to running retail, landscaping, floral, and greenhouse operations all under one roof. Bob explains the pros and cons of owning the supply chain, the challenges of managing diverse departments, and the lessons learned from growing the team from 12 to 65 employees. Listeners will also hear about navigating retail trends, balancing overhead with efficiency, and building a resilient business model where multiple departments support one another. Whether you're running a small landscape crew or leading a multi-division operation, Bob's insights on leadership, systems, and customer experience will spark ideas for growth.

Welcome back to the Mowing in the Dark LAWN CARE Podcast! Many, many, business owners love the biblical book of Proverbs and for good reason. It isn't called the book of wisdom for nothing. But, if you read the reast of the bible, especially Jesus life in the Gospels, you will see that Jesus basically goes against everything our human nature would do in business. Proverbs leaves room for taking someone to court or even revenge, but Jesus leaves no room for either of those things. Jesus says, "turn the other cheek" and "do good to those who persecute you". So how are we suppose to think of these two differing pictures we see in the bible? Let's talk about it.  Book: It's Not Your Business by Gary Miller https://amzn.to/4g3d17O    **Please give the podcast a 5 star rating and review in Apple Podcasts.** Give Me Your Feedback: http://www.linktr.ee/lansinglawnservice     Buy Me A Coffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/mowinginthedark    Michigan Maple Coffee: https://amzn.to/4eQZzSR Check out my business websites: www.lansinglawnservice.com www.gravelblasters.com , www.sutterbrotherslawncare.com   Check out My Favorite Lawn Care Gear: Werner, AC78, Quickclick Stabilizer, Aluminum https://amzn.to/2OTOfMf Wonder Grip WG318L Liquid-Proof Double-Coated/Dipped Natural Latex Rubber Work Gloves 13-Gauge Seamless Nylon, Large, Large https://amzn.to/2Ytjml6 Hodenn Zero Turn Lawn Mower Hitch - Fits Ariens & Gravely ZT-X: https://amzn.to/3jJmEua ECHO Black Diamond Trimmer Line: https://amzn.to/2GBEL7d

Welcome back to the Mowing in the Dark LAWN CARE Podcast! Technology has consumed our culture in America and it is only getting worse. Recently I found myself down the social media rabbit hole and it consumed my life. So in order to combat social media addiction I have started completely turning off my phone for 12 hours a day from 6 pm - 8 am. IT is amazing how freeing it feels to be doom scrolling on facebook for hours at a time. I sleep better, I am more present with my family, and I am way completing more business tasks than ever before. There is no phone call so important with lawn care that it can't wait until the work day.  **Please give the podcast a 5 star rating and review in Apple Podcasts.** Give Me Your Feedback: http://www.linktr.ee/lansinglawnservice     Buy Me A Coffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/mowinginthedark    Michigan Maple Coffee: https://amzn.to/4eQZzSR Check out my business websites: www.lansinglawnservice.com www.gravelblasters.com , www.sutterbrotherslawncare.com   Check out My Favorite Lawn Care Gear: Werner, AC78, Quickclick Stabilizer, Aluminum https://amzn.to/2OTOfMf Wonder Grip WG318L Liquid-Proof Double-Coated/Dipped Natural Latex Rubber Work Gloves 13-Gauge Seamless Nylon, Large, Large https://amzn.to/2Ytjml6 Hodenn Zero Turn Lawn Mower Hitch - Fits Ariens & Gravely ZT-X: https://amzn.to/3jJmEua ECHO Black Diamond Trimmer Line: https://amzn.to/2GBEL7d
