Liberty Lawn and Snow

☀️ Summer weather is officially on the horizon! ☀️

With plenty of sunshine and blue skies in the forecast, we are moving into a beautiful, hot, dry stretch. Last weekend's fantastic rain gave your grass the perfect head start—now it’s time to team up with the sunshine to keep your yard looking lush, green, and vibrant all season long!

Here are 3 simple, proactive ways to maximize that sunshine and set your lawn up for summer success:

🚜 1. Mow High for Deeper Roots
Give your grass a little extra height! Raising your cutting height is the easiest way to help your turf grow deeper roots. Taller grass shades the soil, keeping it naturally cool and holding onto that valuable moisture much longer.

💦 2. Water Deeply and Early
Treat your lawn to a morning soak! Watering early gives your soil plenty of time to absorb every drop before the afternoon sun kicks in.
Pro Tip: To beat the dry stretch, use the "cycle and soak" method (running your system back-to-back) to encourage a deep, resilient root system that stays green effortlessly.

⚔️ 3. Keep Those Blades Sharp
A clean cut is a happy cut! Crisp, sharp mower blades keep your grass healthy, strong, and growing beautifully so it can soak up the summer sun with ease.

Our results speak for themselves!

It is fun pulling up to our properties when the homeowner is on a quality program and follows mowing and watering recommendations. The lawn on the left had a national provider’s sign in the yard. The lawn on the right is in year two of Liberty’s Premium Package.

The national brand spends millions on marketing. Our applicators are our marketing team!

End of an era, turning of a page!

Today marks the last day of our old shop. We rented this place from a long time friend turn landlord and while it was not always the most convenient we made due while we decided what our forever home would be.

From meetings with the city to have our personal home rezoned allowing us to build a shop to looking at other permanent options we never missed a beat in servicing our great customers.

This spring we found that forever home. A quick deal was put together using the best real-estate team in the business and we closed early this spring. Thank you Derrick Monroe Group - Lakes Area Realty. If you are ever in the market please reach out to Derrick, you won’t regret it.

David and Ron Monroe, Midwest Mortgage Consultants did a great job allowing us to move quickly to get in our new shop right away this spring.

Ross Hemmer and Randy Hemmer. Thank you for being such wonderful landlords. You are kind thoughtful and so very easy to work with. I am glad this place worked out for us and you called offering it when you did. I know you will find a tenant to fill the space quickly. We are happy to be a reference if anyone asks.

While the new 13k sq. ft. shop is a work in progress it is nice to be able to work on things under lights and out of the wind 😁.

The guys love having their own space and area to work. And don’t get us started on the luxury of having a working bathroom

Maria Wysocki Ditsch, I could not imagine this ride with anyone else, you have been a rock of support through the most trying times. Thank you for always being our biggest champion.

We look forward to what the next decade brings!

Most companies don’t want to see their competitors grow. But getting to know the crew and culture at ProLawns over the past few years we can honestly say they are a great company with awesome culture. It is fun to see another company take training and education so seriously.

Congrats guys, we are excited for you. Perhaps we will see you guys in the wild when we get started on lawns next week!

"Get in the truck. Jose' will show you what to do when you get there." Most owners use this method that Tony Bass mocked in the E-Myth Landscape Contractor when they hire someone new. They prioritize immediate labor. Then they complain when turnover hits 50% in July.

We had two new hires start today. 90% of our first day is sitting down. For our onboarding we prioritize culture mesh and operational support. Then after a couple day we start learning about technical concepts. Then we spend a few weeks on practical application. We don't even look at output, efficiency or speed until Month 2.

I’ve been running this system since I had the E-Myth Landscape Contractor on CD - for that long!
10 years later, we're still happily onboarding overhead heavy. It's far easier to dial in speed when quality is cemented as paramount and the new hire feels supported. Just try dialing in quality after speed has been emotionally beaten into a new hire's head from day one.

🦊 Fox in the Henhouse! (Wait, what?!) 🐓

How many of you would actually volunteer to have a government audit on yourselves?

Well, that’s exactly what we did today!

We invited the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) out to our new shop for a proactive compliance "check-up."

The Result?
It went great! (And we can finally breathe again. 😮‍💨)

Why did we do it?
Because at Liberty, "good enough" isn't our style. We want to make 100% sure that our community and our local environment are protected by the highest standards in the industry.

While some of our applicators spent the day doing furthering education one very proud poppa was absent with good cause.

Chad got the opportunity to see his son graduate from USMC basic training in San Diego today and we could not be happier for both of them.

Liberty was honored to employ Braden before he decided to join Uncle Sam.

Thank you for your service Marine, we know you will make our country proud!

Another 70 degree day, it is hard not to think summer!

Drop a pic of what your plans are after Liberty gives you your weekends back.

When the previous owner was more concerned about security cameras than letting your water lines freeze.

Yep, all the plumbing is being torn out. Our scrapper already knows he has a couple hundred feet of copper coming his way!

Yesterday was a double win for the Liberty family! 🎉

We aren’t just celebrating office milestones; we’re celebrating personal ones, too. Our amazing Office Manager, Jefferson, officially drove off the lot in his very first new car! 🚗💨

We couldn’t be more proud of his hard work and excited for this new chapter. At Liberty, we believe a strong "family culture" doesn't just make us a better team—it allows us to serve our clients with even more heart.

Join us in saying a huge Congratulations, Jefferson! 🥂

A big day today! More to come but we aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Huge shout out to Derrick Monroe with Derrick Monroe Group - Lakes Area Realty and David and Ron Monroe, Midwest Mortgage Consultants for their hard work. If you’re in the market we highly recommend them!
