Loving becomes one of the largest sod farming operations in the US

|

One of Landscape Management‘s “fastest growing landscaping companies” is expanding again with the recent acquisition of H&H Sod Farm located in Orlando, Fla.

“Although our company has been built solely through organic growth rather than acquisitions, we found that the shared values and belief in fostering strong communities made this opportunity a natural fit,” said Mike Haynes, founder and CEO of Loving. “We are excited for the continued opportunity to expand as it allows us greater opportunity to capitalize on our mission of creating a positive impact through our outreach efforts in the communities that we serve.”

Founded in 1969 by Danny and Lois Hall, H&H Sod Farm has grown to become not just one of the largest sod farming operations in the state of Florida, but also one of the most respected sod farms based upon its unwavering commitment to quality, paired with the focus on serving its people.

In addition to the H&H Sod Farm acquisition, Loving has created a strategic partnership with both Scotts and Bethel Turf to join in the production and distribution of ProVista Turf throughout the state of Florida.

“Bethel and Scotts are happy to welcome Loving into the ProVista network. We are excited about the numerous distribution opportunities that Loving provides through the strong relationships that they have created,” said Will Nugent, owner of Bethel Turf. “We believe that this step is a major milestone in our effort to increase public awareness and education of ProVista Turf. We are thrilled of the numerous homebuilders throughout the state that have already committed to transition their new lawns over to ProVista Turf, providing their homebuyers a superior looking turfgrass, that requires a fraction of the maintenance.”

Loving is headquartered in Gastonia, N.C., and offers landscaping, outdoor living and sod farming services to both local and national homebuilding clients throughout the south-eastern United States. Founded by a middle schooler with a push mower in the late 90’s, LOVING has grown at a rapid pace into one of the largest landscaping and farming providers in the U.S.
