"The first word that comes to mind when we think about Greenwise is "WOW!". To say that we were impressed with the hard work the crew put forth, does not give them justice. The pace of the crew was that of a sprinter, but they would also stop on a dime for a friendly chat or any question that came their way. The unbelievable knowledge they posses is surely second to none. Our back yard looks absolutely beautiful and we would recommend the services of Greenwise to anyone. Even more important to us is the friendship we have formed and the relationship we hope to continue with the crew at Greenwise."

"It is impossible to understate the importance of switching from synthetic chemical fertilizers, pesticides and weed killers to natural products. The synthetic chemicals remain on our lawns and gardens much longer than the 24 hours we are advised to stay off of the lawn after application, and these chemicals, which are neurotoxins and hormone disrupters, are readily absorbed through our skin, our children's skin and our pets' skin. These chemicals also destroy the natural nutrients and microorganisms in the soil, creating weak plants that depend on more and more chemicals to survive but never really thrive. Natural lawn and garden products nourish the soil, replenish vital microorganisms and create strong plants that are more resistant to disease and pests, while at the same time creating a safe play environment for people and pets."

"We have used Greenwise for only one year but I am very pleased with the results thus far and look forward to continuing on with Greenwise to improve our lawn and beautify our garden. What I am most pleased with thus far is that our lawn looks just as nice as our neighbors who use chemical fertilizers, and I can take comfort in knowing that I am achieving a beautiful lawn while not destroying the environment. It also gives me peace of mind to know that my children and pets can go on the lawn immediately after treatment and be safe. I also feel that Greenwise works with me to insure that my yard is getting exactly the treatments that are best for it, and not just some generic yard treatment that my particular yard doesn't need.
I am also looking very forward to working with their landscaping services to create a beautiful, yet native and thus more eco friendly, garden. I love that they offer different levels of landscaping so that my husband and I, who enjoying gardening work, can not only have a say in what plants we would like to use, but also can do some of the plantings ourselves, and thus feel even more connected to our own garden. Lastly, I feel that the customer service at Greenwise is excellent, which I think is vital in today's economy, and is much appreciated by me.

"We can't begin to express the gratitude we feel when we see our friends' babies playing on the grass in our backyard, or our little 7 pound dog chewing on the grass. We shudder to think what might otherwise be in contact with these most precious little ones; they are so fragile and it is so wonderful to see them playing in a safe place.
Who would have thought that our own lawn could be filled with toxins and pesticides. We had lawn care from another place before Greenwise, and we discovered in horror what they routinely do. I don't want to clutter this letter with that, though.
We are writing because we admire you; we are grateful to Marc and Lindsay for their courage to stand up for the most immediate way we can all be responsible for this planet - in our own yards, in our everyday lives.
Thank you. Thanks SO much for what you do, and for the intelligence, and needed hard work you bring to our lives.
PS: We like how clean the air smells after your team has visited us every week, too. Wow -- no thick exhaust fumes saturating the place..... Nice!"

I am extremely happy to report that our lawn [...] in Evanston looks better than at any time since we moved in 1986. I am happy that we have the services of Greenwise. Also, the concept of “going green” in today’s world makes sense to me.
Also, the native prairie plants/flowers have been doing beautifully as well. Perhaps next year we can expand this.
Thanks for all of the good green care.
Appreciatively,
~Arthur
"We very much appreciate all you've done. Our front and back yards have never looked this good. I'm convinced that your landscaping design and service were key to our receiving two offers within 7 days of putting the house on the market. We also let perspective buyers know that we had stopped using any pesticides or herbicides that would harm their children or pets. That made quite a difference to many who looked at the house."
