What Makes Us Different
We Plant Local Roots. That means we are not only locally focused but we are also future oriented. We work with communities to achieve their vision, innovate alongside leaders to challenge old-world thinking and educate partners for mutual benefit. We aim to leave a positive impact, model authentic relationships and support local — both within communities and within our industry. Change requires purpose, courage and humility. And it requires that we practice these tenets together on a daily basis.
