OUR HISTORY
Originally founded as BJ Landscape Maintenance in 1985 by Brent and Pam Jefferies, the company has evolved to become a leading full-service landscaping company. When the original owners relocated to South Carolina in 2014, Brandon Ridenour and Brian Urlacher purchased the company and continue to operate the business with the same attention to detail and personalized service that remains the core philosophy of our business. Our company has evolved over the years to become more than just a landscape maintenance organization and therefore, we elected to change our trade name to Terra Verde Landscape Solutions, to better reflect our increased scope and range of services offered.

In 2013, Brian retired from football and became involved in several business and charitable ventures along with his duties as a sportscaster. Brian initially moved to Arizona in 2006 with his two daughters and sought a business opportunity in the valley that would complement his other endeavors, yet accommodate his limited time availability. With his lifelong friend Brandon, the two partners formed 2B’s Enterprises, recognized the potential of the landscaping industry in Phoenix, and purchased the company in 2014.
