Landscape Maintenance, Plain City Ohio

Jerome Village is a 2,000-acre master-planned community in Plain City, Ohio, spanning residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, parks, trails, pond systems, and natural open spaces. Our team provides year-round landscape maintenance that keeps the community polished, cohesive, and welcoming as it continues to grow.

The client’s goal is to maintain a beautiful, well-kept community that reflects the highest standards in residential development and enhances daily life for residents. Our work includes finish mowing, brush mowing, plant bed care, seasonal color installation, tree pruning, edging, and detailed trimming across hundreds of acres and more than 21 miles of fencing.

As new neighborhoods and commercial areas are added, we seamlessly integrate newly developed sections into the existing landscape through turf restoration, bed renovation, and consistent detailing to maintain a unified aesthetic across all phases of growth.

This project earned a 2025 Silver Award from the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP) in recognition of its high-quality care, strong operational planning, and commitment to resident experience and community appearance.

Key  Highlights

  • Massive Site Scale: The project spans over 2,000 acres of combined residential and commercial development. This includes more than 600 acres of green space, with 240+ acres dedicated to finish mowing, highlighting the sheer scale and ongoing maintenance commitment required to keep the property pristine.

  • Stormwater & Natural Areas: Our team manages maintenance around ponds, wetlands, and naturalized fields, ensuring healthy ecosystems and visual appeal. Additionally, over 160 acres of brush mowing along open meadows and wooded edges keep natural areas safe, navigable, and visually cohesive.

  • Neighborhood Growth & Integration: As new construction continues, we perform continuous landscape restoration to blend developing areas seamlessly with established spaces. Services such as aeration, overseeding, and bed re-establishment help unify the neighborhood’s appearance and maintain a consistent, polished aesthetic.

  • Tree & Plant Health Care: Year-round structural pruning and monitoring are performed for thousands of street trees, ensuring long-term plant health. Each spring, 700+ cubic yards of mulch are applied to beds for moisture retention and weed suppression, promoting vigorous growth and sustainable landscapes.

  • Community & Public Spaces: High-visibility areas such as the Community Center, pool, and Bar & Grill receive dedicated care to maintain a welcoming environment. Seasonal color installations enhance these gathering spaces, providing vibrant, inviting landscapes for residents and visitors.
