ABOUT US

What if your lawncare provider knew you and your neighborhood?

Buckhead Landscape and Design (BLD) began with a simple gesture—one man agreeing to serve his neighbor. After Stuart Ward agreed to help his neighbor take care of her yard, he saw an opportunity he previously hadn’t seen—the need for a local landscaper who took a truly professional approach to providing a valued service. Soon after, Buckhead Landscape and Design (Buckhead Turfcare then) was born!

As an engineer by trade, Stuart had the ingenuity to create project plans and solve problems for clients, as well as the professionalism to serve high-caliber clientele. Along with the desire to be a good neighbor, these traits became the foundation for how BLD runs its business: personal, professional, prompt, and precise.

Now a premier service provider in Atlanta, BLD serves homeowners and associations across the North Atlanta area, serving up sophisticated, eye-popping outdoor designs, as well as landscape maintenance.

Management

Stuart Ward
Owner/General Manager

Stuart began his career in corporate sales working in the chemical and environmental industries. As an entrepreneur at heart, he saw the potential for a new landscaping company in the North Atlanta metro area. Although there were many companies serving the market at that time, none took a truly professional approach to the business. By leveraging his experience in business with his passion for landscaping design he founded Buckhead Turfcare, LLC (now Buckhead Landscape and Design) in 1996.

Stuart Ward is designated a Certified Landscape Professional (CLP) through PLANET and is a Certified Pesticide Applicator in the state of Georgia. His favorite plants are the Camellia and the Mexican Petunia, and his favorite part of living in Atlanta is all the activities the city has to offer, such as the great concerts and events he attends with his wife.
