When Can I Cut My Lawn After a Service?

It looks like you are in the united states, are you looking for Dr. Green Services in the USA?
Dr. Green was founded in 1985 by our dad, Lou, after he left his job at a vending machine company to pursue something he could build from the ground up. What started as a small, family-run lawn care service quickly became his passion—and eventually, our family’s calling. In 1992, our mom, Lorraine, joined the business full-time, bringing her own grit and warmth to the operation. Together, they turned Dr. Green into more than just a lawn care company—it became a family legacy rooted in hard work, personal service, and a whole lot of green thumbs.
The second generation is now at the helm, with siblings Lee and Raunie Ratcliffe leading the charge. Lee heads up our Calgary and Edmonton locations with a degree in Horticulture from the University of Guelph and over 25 years of experience in the field, while Raunie brings her finance background, innovation, and nearly two decades of lawn care expertise to our Ontario branch. Together, they’re continuing the legacy their parents started—one healthy lawn at a time.

We love what we do, and we’re proud to offer personalized care and innovative solutions to ensure your lawn stays vibrant and healthy year-round.
