Great Landscaper! Kristi at Greenwise is an excellent account manager. She takes the time and effort to ensure that the landscaping at our property is always taken care of. I used most large landscapers at our downtown property asset over the years... Kristi and Company are without question is the best landscaper that I have used (and I have used many!).

Stefan<br>Thanks for the kind words! I will let the crews and Kristi know. Have great rest of the year!
This is an update to my last review, below. We have had Greenwise install our outdoor Christmas decor this past year and again this year. They did a terrific job, as always. A shout out particularly to Juan Carlos and Houston, who were efficient and courteous, and responsive to our couple of questions. Really professional and nice guys to boot. From 2023: We had The Green Team - now partnered with Greenwise Organic (an outfit out of Chicago) - out last week for a Spring clean-up of our backyard and front bushes area. The team - Amanda, Gerardo and Ren - were on time, courteous, efficient and thorough. Our patio space and yard looks tidy and neat, ready for Spring flowering and sitting in the sun. We always appreciated The Green Team's practice of prompt reply to queries, provided with evident expertise. Greenwise continues this and has even improved on it, with notice well in advance of scheduled services, which gives us the opportunity to be present with questions and/or concerns. And commitment to environmentally conscious policies remains part of this premium-standard lawn and yard-care service.

Thank you for the kind words, Juan. It has been great to work with you. I am so happy you had a good experience! Despite the inconsistent weather, I know you'll enjoy your backyard oasis, regardless.<br>Bradley
Greenwise team removed an old, unattractive retaining wall and replaced it with a beautiful new wall with some nice landscaping. The project, no small undertaken, was completed in a week and was done very professionally and efficiently. Great job!

Thanks Bob!<br>We were happy that everything turned out!
Our new front yard lawn has never looked this good. Thank you for the new grass and the trimming!
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Sue, thank you! Love that your yard is impressing you. 👊
We use Greenwise annual maintenance program and our yard & lawn have never looked better. It’s a great price for all the services included in their roughly 7 month package. This year we added some decorative green landscaping and we couldn’t be happier from the design to the installation. This team is very knowledgeable & professional

Anne - So happy that you see the value and appreciate the expertise of our team. Thank you for taking the time to write this review.
Their team was awesome. Lynn did a fantastic job coming up with a beautiful design for our front yard. She was so knowledgeable, and we had the utmost confidence that anything she picked out was the right choice. She communicated if there was a change and was super responsive if we had a question. The installers were super professional. Just a great experience overall.
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Lynn is top tier! So glad you are happy with the attention and care we took this year in transforming your outdoor space.
I was very pleased with my experience working with greenwise. Diana helped me make decisions about plants use. I was surprised when they came to do the work that I was asked to join them before they started to rim the tree.asked which branches to cut so the tree looked natural and even. They made edges with gracefully curves rather than strait lines.I asked them to remove shrub and tree stumps that other companies told me they couldn't do because they couldn't get their machines up the hill.I was surprised that they did all the work by hand no machines were used even to mix compost into the soil. I had asked if they could plant in the spot where they were going to remove several shrub roots.She said they would probably just cut them off and treat them but they removed them and planted flowers I was very happy with that. They did some extra things so I thought the final payment might be higher but it wasn't. I recommend this company to anyone who asks for a great job.
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Diana knows her plants! So glad we met and exceeded expectations! Referrals are the best compliment!<br><br>Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
Great company to deal with. Lynn was fantastic and a joy to work with; showed through drawings what the project would look like, then delivered. She oversaw the project start to finish. Easy invoicing and payment on line. If you have a landscape project I would recommend this company.

Richard,<br><br>Thank you so much! Can’t wait to work with you again!
I have been working with them for years. They just built a new patio, that I am very happy with and cleared out my weeds.
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
David,<br><br>Thank you for choosing Greenwise, year after year. We very much appreciate your feedback. We know there are a lot of choices out there, so the fact that you choose us is immensely appreciated.
I have been using Green Team of WI and now Greenwise for many years - perhaps their very first year. When the garden beds start becoming overgrown, they provide recommendations and reasonable quotes for thinning and changing out plants. In addition to weed and garden maintenance, we added in lawn cutting and mosquito/wasp control this year and are even happier than before. Everyone on the team does an excellent job. I hope and look forward to having snow removal services available in the MKE area soon! Thanks to Greenwise for making our yard look nice and our summers more fun.
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Patty,<br><br>We will let you know when we do snow again! Thanks for being a long time customer. We appreciate you!
We had a great experience with Greenwise’s landscaping team! We own an older home that had established landscaping in the front and side yard. We liked some of it, but a lot was mismatched and had grown together awkwardly. Kristi was very consultative and was able to keep, move, or split the existing elements that we liked and incorporated them into a new design. She really listened to us and made thoughtful adjustments based on our feedback. The team who executed was very efficient and professional. We look forward to working with Greenwise again in the future to design our back yard!
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Kristi cares deeply for all of her customers and goes to great lengths to listen and deliver on what is best for the outdoor space and her clients. So happy that you two were able to make the magic happen! <br><br>Thanks for sharing your feedback.
Greenwise is outstanding! Highly recommend this local company that treats you like a valued partner and takes pride in providing genuinely wonderful landscaping services. After doing a GREAT job over the last few years with fall- and spring-clean-ups as well as summer maintenance, Greenwise completely overhauled my large, hillside corner lot. From designing, weeding, prepping, planting and mulching, they have done an amazing job and have been awesome to work with. Especially, Kristi. I’m not very botanically literate and was super grateful to have Kristi walk me through everything. She is very knowledgeable, informative, patient, and communicative. My property had a lot of overgrowth with invasive plants taking root. I wanted to turn it into a natural-looking habitat, organically (NO pesticides) with native/semi-native plants that attract pollinators. It felt overwhelming. Kristi designed a wonderful layout of diverse plants that not only looks fantastic, it started attracting pollinators right away. Their team also laid out all the hoses for irrigation and coached me through watering schedules. Seamless. What a delight it was to see huge, beautiful bumble bees visiting the hill this summer ❤️ Greenwise stands by their work, too. In the heat of summer, a few plants didn’t survive and Greenwise has since replaced them with new ones. I couldn’t be happier with Greenwise and recommend them to everyone! If you care about your land, the environment, and want pesticide-free landscaping, Greenwise is your best bet. My neighbor hired them after seeing their great work. You should, too!

Update 2025: Once again, exceptional work by Greenwise! This year Jax and Jorge tackled the wildly overgrown areas of my garden, with thick growths of invasive weeds averaging 4-5 feet tall, and successfully removed all the overgrowth and installed a weed suppression system. In addition, they cleared up the less wild areas of my garden, and planted a bunch more native plants! It was all topped off with a beautiful layer of wood chips. I continue to be extremely impressed by the quality of work carried out by everyone from Greenwise, and I wish it were possible to give more than 5 stars! 2024 review: Greenwise designed and installed a native plant pollinator garden for me. It is absolutely beautiful! They took all my preferences (and budget) into account, to give me exactly what I wanted! The work was completed quickly and professionally. All-in-all a great experience, and I highly recommend them!

Victoria, thanks so much for the wonderful feedback! We appreciate you trusting Lynn, Jimmy and Brandy with your native garden. We hope to work with you again in the future!<br><br>Austin Hall<br>President & Owner
We used Greenwise to design and install a large patio to replace an old deck. The project involved deck demolition and removal, regrading, retaining walls, patio design and installation, and design and installation of nearby planting areas. The large project was completed on-time and in-budget. The end result is exactly what we were hoping for. Communication throughout the project was excellent.

Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Thank you for the 5-star review, Jorge!
Greenwise reinvisioned my urban front yard and parkway! It transformed from a few non-unified plantings and grass to a fully-fledged city perennial garden! It has been a few months since the initial install and the plants are thriving! Loving the result! Looking forward to seeing the plantings fill in as they grow!
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
We're thrilled you're enjoying your new perennial garden! It's wonderful to hear the plants are thriving. We appreciate you choosing us to revitalize your space and create something beautiful!<br>
This is our first year with Greenwise and our landscaping has never looked better.

Seth, thank you so much for the compliments! We appreciate you!<br><br>The Greenwise Team
Great with strategy, and client communication. Scheduling is good and may require some client check ins.

Colby, thank you for the kind review!
The service is not the same since the company was sold. Disappointing deterioration in customer service as well as overall effort.
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
Maria-<br><br>We're sorry to hear of your disappointment. We always stand behind our work and when we make a mistake, we make it right.<br><br>To our knowledge, Greenwise was notified of your disappointment two months after your late spring clean-up was performed. As my colleague outlined when you spoke, we do not believe our crew removed any perennials because the service scope did not include weeding of any kind. Additional, by June when the work was performed, these plants would have been growing and well-established. In this case, we do not believe the issue was caused by our crews, particularly given your ongoing battle with rabbits and the duration of time between when the work was performed and when we were asked to replace your missing flowers.<br><br>Again, if we felt there was an issue we caused, we would have certainly replaced these plants.<br><br>We appreciate you working with us in the past, and we wish you the best.<br><br>The Greenwise Team
They did a great job with my plantings. The crew was very respectful and did a wonderful job all around!

Mary, thanks so much for the great review -- we appreciate you trusting our team with your planting project!<br><br>Austin Hall<br>President & Owner
We consulted with Greenwise for a complete front lawn renovation at our home. After discussing what we wanted and hearing the suggestions from Greenwise, they were able to create a plan for us from their landscape architect. Our project was delayed a few times due to rain but Greenwise kept us informed about the projected start date frequently. Once the project started it only took a few days to complete. The landscapers were excellent-always on-time and worked hard all day. Lynn and Heather were great too! They were always checking in with us to see what we thought and give us any updates on the progress. We really appreciated that. We were impressed with the quality of the materials used-stone blocks, new plantings and fresh sod. The project turned out absolutely beautiful and were are so pleased with the whole process! I would highly recommend Greenwise for landscaping projects.

Dana- What a wonderful review...we are blown away! Thank you so much. Lynn, Jimmy, Roberto and the rest of our team so enjoyed working with you on this project. We are thrilled to hear of and see the outcome. Thanks for putting your trust in Greenwise! It was our pleasure to serve you.<br><br>Austin Hall<br>President & Owner

Esther, we do not have a record for you in our system. Is this review intended for another company? Please advise if there’s something that we can rectify or that we are overlooking.
Lawn care is very expensive and all I have asked that they call ahead before coming for a service. I have kids (hence why I’m interested in organic lawn care) and they leave toys and stuff in yard that if it’s not picked up before they come they either spray it with compost/fertilizer or miss that part of my yard. They have been completely unable to call ahead , instead just showing up. And then after two services of me asking if they could call, I get an email saying they will charge me a fee each time they “have to call” and then…. They still didn’t call and just showed up and scared my nanny who is watching my kids while I’m at work. I’m very disappointed as I love this organic lawn care but they have very poor customer service for the price. .
Response from Greenwise Organic Lawn Care of Milwaukee
I am sorry you didn't have a great experience or if our company is not a good fit for your needs. Our prices are based on current supply costs and current labor rates. At this time we don't have the capacity to call ahead, up to a few hundred clients, unless we charge for that service. That said, if you purchased a 'call ahead' service and we didn't call ahead, we are happy to refund your money for that service. Please contact me at bradley@greenteamwi.com and I will help you get the value you deserve from the services you purchased.
