About Us

At Roots Wild, we do everything through the lens of our Core Value, wisdom. Wisdom is solid action and a decision made through the application of knowledge, experience and good judgment.

 

Because of that, we believe landscaping should be a collaboration between human design and natural wisdom, not a battle between them. In fact, we believe you shouldn’t have to sacrifice beauty for sustainability. We embody this value of wisdom by bringing strategy, discernment and creativity to our work. 

​

Joel Genz is a certified landscape contractor with over 20 years of landscaping and hardscaping experience. You can feel good about the beauty we deliver because we strive to reflect your lifestyle while also respecting the environment around you.
