COMPANY HISTORY


PAUL MILLER, Company Founder

Evergreen Lawn Service began business in the spring of 1981; starting with an old Lawn Boy mower, an electric trimmer and a used Chevrolet pickup truck.

The 1st season consisted of all lawn mowing & lawn cleanups, and about 30 customers. Our Fertilizing and Weed Control Program started the 2nd year with 20+ customers.

In the next 24 years Evergreen Lawn Service of Duluth, Inc. has grown to become the largest lawn spraying company north of Minneapolis serving the northern Minnesota & Wisconsin areas. Adding customers one by one, Evergreen has competed with and surpassed all competitors to become the leader of the lawn care industry in the area, which currently provides service to over 1500 customers.

Our Organic-Based Lawn Program was developed in 1996 and gives customers that are "chemical sensitive" a chance to improve their turf without the use of pesticides.

Paul Miller, the company founder, has been active with associations including Minnesota Pesticide Information & Education (MN PIE). Professional Lawn Care Association of America (PLCAA), and the City of Duluth Task Force.

Minnesota cities currently served are Duluth, Cloquet, Carlton, Hermantown, Eveleth, Proctor, Pike Lake, Two Harbors, Virginia, Aurora and Biwabik. Wisconsin locations include Superior, Lake Nebagamon, Iron River and Brule.

"Since the beginning in 1981, our goal has always been to
provide our customers with quality service at a fair price.
Today that business strategy is still utilized and will be enforced into the future".
