4 Gardening Business Success Stories [2022]
A gardening business makes money by planting trees, growing specific types of produce, maintaining landscapes, and more.
Gardening companies work with homeowners to install, maintain and repair their landscaping areas. For instance, a typical gardening business provides all-inclusive services to create and maintain a lawn such as mowing, fertilizing, and edging.
Owning a gardening business can be a very flexible and profitable business venture.
