Tender Lawn Care has been a staple in the West Michigan community since its founding in 1949. As a family-owned and operated business, the company prides itself on its deep roots and commitment to high-quality landscape management and snowplowing services for both residential and commercial clients. Founded by Joe Oomkes and Sid DeJong, the company began its journey by providing landscape services to East Grand Rapids residents. Over the decades, as the metropolitan area expanded, Tender Lawn Care adapted and grew alongside it.
The company rebranded in 1979, adopting the name Tender Lawn Care, which reflects its heartfelt commitment to serving clients, employees, and the environment. As of 2012, Jamin DeJong, the grandson of one of the founders, took the helm of the company, ensuring that the family values of hard work, honesty, and perseverance continue to thrive within the organization. Jamin collaborates with a team of dedicated professionals who share the company's mission of quality service and environmental stewardship.
Tender Lawn Care offers a comprehensive range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of its clientele. From residential lawn maintenance, including mowing, fertilization, and pest control, to commercial landscaping and snow and ice management, the company is equipped to handle it all. They also specialize in sports turf management, ensuring that every lawn and outdoor space looks its best.
With a commitment to treating every lawn as if it were their own, Tender Lawn Care has established itself as a trusted partner for landscaping needs in the Greater Grand Rapids area. Their clients can expect not only quality service but also a personal touch that comes from a family-run business with decades of experience.
