In 1997, Randy Whitfield was afforded the opportunity to go to school for Horticulture. In 1999 he received his first degree in Landscape Management and in 2000 he received his second degree in Greenhouse Specialist. His goal was to take advantage of his knowledge and, achieve financial independence for his family, by operating a family owned company.
His first job was in the spring with all the tools needed to begin his journey.
He started with a 1994 Dodge Caravan, a 20 inch Push Lawn Mower, a Few Hand Tools, a Cell Phone (Still using the same number today), Business Cards (that was printed off an old Gateway Desktop Computer), and his family which included his wife Catherine Whitfield, his son Randy Whitfield, II 18 years old, daughter RaeLynn Whitfield, 17 years old, son Christopher Whitfield, 13 years old, son Catum Whitfield, 11 years old, nephews Kanin Pierce, 11 years old and DeShawn Pierce, 10 years old.

I wanted an estimate for a very small project, repairing a retaining wall that only bordered 3 steps. They expected a $75 consultation fee to even do an estimate and also required potential clients to enter their budget before the estimate, therefore putting naive people in a position of being overcharged for very little wok. I was referred to them by an acquaintance, they won't be referring anyone else. If you care to be ripped off proceed, if you're more pragmatic find a new contractor.

I am extremely pleased with the services provided by Whitfield's Lawn & Garden (WLG)! If you are deciding whether or not to DIY, don't do it...just let WLG do it. You'll be happier. 🤩
We had a paver patio installed. WLG was very patient and helpful during our initial conversations about the aesthetics and installation of our patio. They shared pictures of sample work and different types of pavers to help us make an informed decision. The project was estimated to be 3 days, and it was started and completed as expected. The workers who installed the paver patio were timely, professional, and

The entire team at Whitfield's has been great to work with. Randy came immediately to give us an estimate, which helped us get our project underway when the weather was optimal. Catum and his team did a careful and quality install. And RaeLynn in the office has been there to answer all of my questions. We couldn't be happier with the service we've received, and we'll recommend Whitfield's to anyone.

Whitfield’s entire team was very responsive to our needs. Believe it or not, there can be urgency to landscaping issues - they recognized the situation and took care of our project. We would highly recommend and we will be using them for future services.

Whitfield's Lawn was referred to our church by an Associate Elder at the church. I reached out to them regarding pricing and availability. The staff was courteous, professional, and accommodating. We have been clients for about 4 months and they do an awesome job. I would recommend them to both residential and commercial prospects.
