AT GREENSEASONS, KEEPING PROPERTIES LOOKING GOOD IS A FAMILY BUSINESS STARTED AS A family business in 2000, GreenSeasons has branched out from commercial lawn care to cover the full landscape of a home or business. Chris Casselberry Sr. founded GreenSeasons to maintain the family connection he experienced working in his parents’ office supply company. His sons Chris, Adam, Charles and Thomas and now his grandkids have joined the business, making it a third-generation family operation. “What’s unique about a family business is you get to see your family almost every day, not just on holidays,” he says. “We treat all of our team members like family too.” While branching out into pest control, mosquito abatement and tree service, GreenSeasons also expanded to service industrial, governmental and residential properties. Locals might recognize their work at places like Tanger Outlets or Nottoway Plantation. The company’s tree division, staffed by a professional arborist, is the latest offering. “The only thing we don’t do is put in pools,” says Casselberry, “but we’ll do fountains and hardscape.” Chris’ son Charlie Casselberry, who manages the marketing department, explains that there’s an in-house training program for each division. With
170 employees during peak season, GreenSeasons hires only the best experts licensed in everything from horticulture to pest control. “We really strive to make sure that our clients are taken care of, and if something would go wrong, we’ve got your back,” Charlie says. “That also goes for businesses and industrial plants.” When clients first contact GreenSeasons, they are connected
with the right division and can expect a site visit at their property. Their initial point of contact at the company is kept throughout the duration of the project no matter how many crew members are involved. After installation is complete, clients are transitioned to an account manager for regular maintenance if they so desire. Most of GreenSeasons’ services— covering everything from crepe myrtle pruning to irrigation, lawn mowing and

even holiday lighting—are offered separately, but divisions do work together to create a pleasant outdoor experience for each client. That new outdoor fireplace or back patio won’t be as enjoyable if mosquitoes are swarming, so GreenSeasons can take care of all pests, especially through the hot summer season. Since so many outdoor spaces are an extension of indoor living, the company also offers home and termite pest control, along with a “Handyman for the Day” special. “We thought, why not protect our customers inside too?” says Charlie. “Our handyman service can cover your ‘honey do’ list, from light remodels to changing lightbulbs and leaky faucets.” As temperatures rise, GreenSeasons is gearing up for its busy spring and summer season when clients need yard cleanup, pruning and mulching, drainage and irrigation, and of course mosquito control. “People are ready to start spending time outside and want to get everything back in shape,” says Chris. “We can come and bring your yard back to life and make sure you have a nice outdoor experience every day of the year. Once you start working with us, we hope you’ll stay and become part of the family.”
