Evergreen Design Group, a veteran-owned landscape architectural firm, was formed in 2005 by Rodney McNabb. After serving seven years in the U.S. Marine Corps, Rodney entered the landscape contracting business in 1992. Beginning his career as a landscape chemical applicator, Rodney’s employer quickly realized that Rodney was in the wrong position when he kept unintentionally killing all the grass he was spraying for weeds. While this was a commercial landscape maintenance business, Rodney was quickly re-routed to fill the company’s first sales and estimator position for landscape construction projects. This is where Rodney began to excel.
After a few short years, he was promoted to oversee the operations of the different branch offices of this company. He even went to work for another firm where he was a regional manager overseeing multiple offices in multiple states that focused on the exterior and interior landscape maintenance of shopping malls. Rodney eventually formed his full-service landscape company – focusing on design, installation, and maintenance. While enjoying the contractor world, he enjoyed the design side more and created Evergreen Design Group to focus strictly on landscape design and consulting.
Evergreen Design Group grew quickly and efficiently. The firm now employs approximately 15 landscape architects, landscape designers, and irrigation designers – and focuses on projects all over the U.S.
