A BIT ABOUT YOU

You have an entrepreneurial spirit and believe in what we’re building. You work thoroughly and with a sense of urgency, leaving nothing to chance – all with a passion for better connecting our community with the natural world.

A BIT ABOUT US

We like plants, people, and beautiful spaces. John Mulhall came to Omaha in 1953 to landscape, and now, three generations later, we’re as committed as we’ve ever been to making Omaha a more beautiful place to live. Today we’re a team of a few hundred people, but our focus remains the same: working together to engage our community and share our passion for the beauty of the natural world. And we have fun doing it.
