There are so many ways that 317Grow stands out from other landscaping companies. One of those ways is in how women are involved in our company. One of our owners is a woman, 50% of our office staff are women, and we consistently have women working full time in the field. It is rare to find that kind of setup in landscaping. So naturally, as the national conversation has turned to issues of sexual harassment and assault, the conversation has continued in the office.
This fall, a beautiful young woman said to me, "Miss Amanda, when did you know you wanted to own a company?" I looked at her for a short while, smiled and responded with, "NEVER!"
It’s the truth. Owning a company was never in my realm or thought process. I wanted to design. Change people’s lives. Push the limits in every possible way. Be weird. Make my family proud. Keep my parents guessing about what hair color would be next. And most importantly, teach my son the importance of following your passion, no matter what it may be.
In the 3 months that I was here as an intern I gained and learned much more then I had in a year of college. From day one I knew 317Grow designed and constructed some of the most beautiful sites, but it was only after getting to know everyone here that I found out how they did it.
They work as a family, a family that helps and pushes each other to do the best that they can. They also work extremely hard and they don’t settle, they always aim to be the best.
