Trust us - we understand that landscaping can be overwhelming at times. We can guide you in selecting the proper aggregates, decorative stone, landscape rock, interlocking pavers, natural stone steps, flagstone, or just that one special rock for your property. After all, a rock is just a rock until you get creative!

Our direction - to develop a new approach to the landscape depot sector. We source new materials that offer you different choices, yet of course don’t forget about the basics. Our Inventory is selected to create the best landscape ideas! Looking for a fifteen foot slab of natural rock, or expanded shale for decorative use? We have it... If not, we’ll find it.

We know what you want - creative products, creative solutions, competitive prices, value added customer service, and the opportunity for you to engage in dialogue with a depot who listens. We also understand the importance of prompt delivery. To put it simply, we’re here to assist you.

Living Creative

CREATIVEteam

Ivonne Malave

Ivonne's element is water, where she must have inherited her calm and patient demeanour. Our team and clientele love her kind character, blended with a fierce demand for perfection.Ivonne prefers to be outdoors, and produces best results in tropical-like weather. She keeps telling us that she loves her career, and loves the learning experience of being involved in a fast-paced environment, and that her efforts will continue if we allocate time each morning for her to enjoy her coffee in peace!

Jeremy Kwaitkowski

Jeremy sprouted from the earth just like a green bean, except for the beautiful red beard that gives him his welcoming charm. He loves family, has a handsome young gem of a boy, and represents loyalty like a Spartan warrior did for their team. Jeremy truly is an industry professional, fun to be around, and you may even catch him cry if you tickle his feet.

Darlene Brubacher

418 applicants later, Darlene took a seat and won us over with ethic and baked goods from Anna Mae's. Since then she has been focused in sales, refining an HR role, and she wears a couple of quality hats for the team. She loves design, family, travelling, and if there one key element to Darlene's character, its certainly coffee over root beer!

Sam Bell

Sam is serious about selling stone, and very serious about his Jeep that he has been rebuilding for years. Most important... to know more about Sam, you just have to wait and listen to his cell phone ringtone!

Devon Mantler

A real country boy at heart, and the one who choses "ham, bacon, and sausage" for breakfast! Devon manages our inventory, quality control, material handling, and our impeccable approach to organization. He loves snowboarding and yelling 'fore' on the golf course. It takes a lot of balls to golf like Devon!

Lucas Coady

A character in question still to date... Lucas is a perfect example of genuine family-oriented principles, respect for a well-balanced life, and a desire to do more then well on a regular basis. He manages numbers with ease, and we challenge you to test his quick math skills! He, above all, knows that 1 + 6 - 8 is not 4.

Jody Moriarty

The family man of family men! Jody stems from ethical principles that are as pure as an organic freshly pulled potato. He's also a great driver, and keeps our entire team calm during busy moments. Thats for keeping us warm Jody!

Allan Recnik

Allan is one of those members that everyone wishes they had.........but he found us first! Consistent from A to Z, or 7am - 7pm, Allan teaches us that a calm approach offers effective results! Allan has a travelling heart, an embedded smile, and it's obvious that he eats a lot of yogurt!

Stan Aube

Our stan is our daily fireworks ! He's 7 years old in cat years, but is really 7 years old! Stan is on his countdown to retirement, at which time he says that he is coming back to work for us!!! Formerly known as rodney, there is so much more we must say about him, but this isn't the outlet for all of that :)

HULYA AK

Hulya (‘daydream’ in Turkish), is nothing shy of just that. When the company is truly stumped on any given initiative, we just wink her way and the solutions come pouring out.

She may be our Purchasing champ, but we believe she sets the stage for creativity and results. Although she may sprout from Authentic Norwegian soil, there is a possibility that she is heir to the Turkish Baklava!!

Either way, she is a daydream and that's where we cut this profile off!

Navreet Kooner

One of our kindest and most gentle souls, Navreet reminds us that every company needs some of its best talent hidden in the core of the daily activities. The name Navreet stands for Angel, which we believe was a term coined after Navreet gifted us with her lovely smile and hard work ethic.

You know that feeling when you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?!!! Well we now have an in-house solution for that! We invite you to just walk past our finance office, as we officially have live angels!

Steve Hirsch

From the first day, Steve joined the pack, a bet was made; 'Just how nice really is this guy.'!!!? That same day we installed a nice-guy-meter in the office, and to date, we don't know how to properly read its results.
• On day 1, the monitor showed a number 99
• On day 2, the number was gone and the screen was merely flashing hysterically
• and finally on day 3, we put the question to rest. The screen displayed a perfectly cooked pulled pork sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries.
Well, we all went home early for the rest of day 3, and we now have a historical Don-Steve (boss-steve) day which is held each October 20th, in the name of just being rad!

Wes Kropf

A real pro in the game of landscape supply. Wes has both installation experience & industry knowledge. Wes is a real hand-holder and can walk a client through any questions or design challenges that they may have. We haven't confirmed if he actually holds hands or not, but if he does we may either have a long pending list for his services and/or a real problem to solve.

Dan Rees

Every time I hear his name I think of Reese's Pieces, and that brings a smile to my face and also activates my saliva glands. How is this related to Dan and the bio that we wish to represent to the public you may ask? Well, it really doesn't, but in a world where a hard work ethic and a desire for constant improvement make a character shine, Dan is the one we all aspire to be. We, therefore, classify him as our team cheerleader, similar to the Sun-Maid-girl who could even make raisins exciting!!

Justin Sachs-Ritchie

Watching the leaves fall in autumn is as joyous as watching Justin navigate the many chores in one's day. He moves charismatically, offers whimsical smiles in passing, and naturally exudes richness in happiness. We think he applied with us through regular means, but if we had to get creative, I'd suggest that he was actually plucked from a special apple tree! If in fact, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, then we may be on our way to having our own in-house preventative maintenance medical center.

Andrew Willis

Twinkle, sprinkle and intermingle.

Is that it..... yes :)

Rob Palczynski

You know when you enter the world's best bakery, and there's just too many winning decisions that pull reality right out from under your feet!!!? Well, that's precisely what it's like working with Rob on a daily basis. In the mornings, most members try to park beside him, and in the evenings we find ourselves still gazing with joy until he's out of sight. When reality actually goes vague, it sure is nice to know that Rob (the Chillaen Prince) is looking after us all!

Rob, whatever cupcake you chose is certainly the one we stand behind!

Did this bio even make sense? It doesn't matter, because neither does Rob's precision & results. Thanks for holding the ship together Mr. P!

Blake Sicard

Words are hard to express when dealing with such an organism. Blake either rained down literally in a rainstorm, or from the land of 'go-get-em-tiger!' Blake plays hockey, has cats, and eats A&W at 35 years of age... but if we must highlight what his true love is, then there's no doubt it's selling landscape material! Where do we find members like this is a great question... but Blake's predisposed passion certainly makes him the fuzzy peach of the bunch!

The J

0-100 real quick. Let this rollercoaster go free-range and you may be rolling your eyes, but ask him for assistance and you will feel what we mean by 100! Nuff Said.

Jordan Ward

Praying to get younger, yet truly getting older, Jordan is always looking for the neverland where no rules apply and learning is regularly through trial and error... It also happens that he loves natural stone, and drafting exciting outdoor spaces!
