A Touch of Green Responds to Homer Glen Growth with Expanded Landscaping Fleet
In the heart of Homer Glen, where charming suburban streets meet nature’s green thumb, something big is sprouting—and no, it’s not just the perennials. The community has been buzzing with development, expansion, and the unmistakable hum of opportunity. With neighborhoods blossoming and businesses flourishing, the demand for top-tier landscaping has grown faster than crabgrass in July. And at the helm of that response? None other than A Touch of Green Landscaping, a local leader with a legacy of beautifying outdoor spaces one shovel at a time.
It doesn’t take a civil engineer to see that Homer Glen is undergoing a transformation. What was once a quieter corner of the southwest suburbs has now become a magnet for families, real estate investment, and commercial momentum. New subdivisions, parks, and retail spaces are springing up like mushrooms after rain—and with that growth comes the need for meticulous, responsive, and creative landscaping.
In many towns, this sort of expansion can quickly outpace the local services trying to keep up. But Homer Glen is lucky. A Touch of Green isn’t just keeping pace—they’re setting it.
In response to the community’s growth, A Touch of Green has done more than just hire a few extra hands. They’ve gone full throttle by expanding their landscaping fleet—investing in state-of-the-art trucks, trailers, mowers, excavation gear, and specialized planting tools that allow them to service multiple large-scale jobs without compromising the personalized service they’re known for.
“It was a no-brainer,” said the company’s founder, a longtime Homer Glen resident. “We live here. We work here. And we take a lot of pride in making sure our town looks its best. Growing our fleet was just the natural next step.”
But this isn’t your run-of-the-mill landscaping crew with rusty tools in a dented pickup. We’re talking about GPS-tracked service vehicles, hydroseeding equipment, high-capacity mulch blowers, and even electric tools to help reduce environmental impact. When A Touch of Green expands, they don’t just add horsepower—they bring horsepower with heart.
Don’t let the name fool you—A Touch of Green offers far more than lawn mowing. Their expanded capabilities now include:
Their expansion means no longer waiting weeks to get on the schedule. Whether you're planning a backyard transformation or just need reliable lawn maintenance, their increased bandwidth ensures quicker response times and more flexibility.
What sets A Touch of Green apart isn’t just the shiny new trucks or the efficient scheduling software—it’s their deep-rooted connection to the community. This is a company that shows up to town festivals, sponsors youth sports teams, and knows every pothole and parkway in Homer Glen.
In short, they’re not some fly-by-night operation chasing contracts—they’re part of the neighborhood.
Their team of seasoned horticulturists, licensed arborists, irrigation specialists, and landscape designers bring not just experience but also a passion for making green spaces thrive in harmony with Homer Glen’s natural beauty.
The expansion isn’t solely about hardware. A Touch of Green has doubled down on training programs for new hires, safety protocols, and customer service initiatives. They've also added bilingual crew leaders to better serve the diverse needs of Homer Glen’s growing population.
As one crew chief put it, “We’re not just mowing lawns—we’re building relationships.” That ethos has earned them repeat business, glowing reviews, and a reputation as the go-to team for projects both big and small.
Spring and summer may be peak planting seasons, but for A Touch of Green, this entire year marks a season of growth. Their expanded fleet is already on the move, rolling into neighborhoods with freshly serviced mowers and beds of seasonal color ready to be planted. From sprucing up residential yards to managing multi-acre estates, no job is too big or too small.
It’s also a moment of reflection. The team acknowledges that none of this would be possible without the trust of their clients and the support of the Homer Glen community. In fact, they encourage curious homeowners and local businesses alike to learn more about their services and see how this expansion could benefit their next project.
If the recent fleet expansion is any indication, A Touch of Green isn’t planning to slow down anytime soon. With future plans for a dedicated design center, native plant nursery, and expanded service into nearby communities, this homegrown business is poised to become a regional leader in eco-smart, community-driven landscaping.
In a world where companies often grow distant as they grow large, A Touch of Green proves that it’s still possible to expand without losing the human touch. They may have new gear and a larger team, but at the heart of it all remains a simple mission: to create outdoor spaces that feel like home.
So whether your yard needs a little TLC or a total makeover, one thing is clear—Homer Glen is in good hands. Or rather, green thumbs.
