Get to know Matt:
Matthew Bottali was born and raised in Ridgefield, CT. As a child he spent countless hours mowing the lawn and helping out around the house with landscape chores. He attended all Ridgefield schools, Ridgebury Elementary School, East Ridge Middle School and finally Ridgefield High School. He graduated in June of 2001.
Matthew attended Naugatuck Community College in Waterbury, CT for two years after high school. He achieved an Asscociates Degree in Computer Networking & Administration. During this time the business was started as a part time venture.

In years prior Matthew was employed at DHYL Ridge Golf Course, just up the road from his house while he was in high school. Working on the golf course sparked his interest in lawn care. It wasn't long before he was mowing the neighborhood lawns with a small mower. That small push mower quickly became too slow. He took the plunge and purchased a used commercial unit from a local dealer. Then came the other tools like a cheap Sears Craftsman weed whacker and blower. It wasn't long until he purchased true commercial equipment to improve quality of service and effeciency.
