About Magnolia Landscape
& Design Co.

Tom’s love for the outdoors and landscaping can be traced back to his childhood growing up in Mayer MN; his fascination with flowers, plants and trees was evident as soon as he began walking and talking. In fact, he still has his old leaf collection! Tom originally went to school to study Engineering, and upon finding that he wanted a field with a more creative component, changed his area of study to Landscape Design. After working as landscape foreman around the Eden Prairie area for a number of years at a successful landscape company, he decided to start his own landscape company. His handpicked team of project managers and assistants ensures every landscape project goes according to plan and stays true to the customer’s vision. Tom’s goal when starting a new landscape project is one hundred percent customer satisfaction. His perfectionist tendencies and his love for putting all the landscape design elements together in a finished work of art have created happy yards and happy customers all over the Eden Prairie and Twin Cities area! Tom enjoys spending time with his wife Nicole, their six beautiful children, and the family dogs, Stella, Henry & Jo. They love having family movie nights and sitting around the backyard fire pit telling “ghost” stories and making s’mores.

Tyler holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Landscape Horticulture. Tyler started out en route to be an engineer, but felt he would miss out on utilizing his artistic abilities. The answer? Landscape design! It is the perfect combination for Tyler, because it requires both technical precision and artistic design.

“The landscape should be considered an extension of the home. The Outdoor Room includes more than just the patio. The entire yard should be a welcoming, intentional reflection of the home it surrounds. I love maximizing a yard’s potential and creating spaces that pull families outdoors,” says Tyler.

Tyler grew up in Lester Prairie, MN and currently lives in Waconia with his wife, Holly, and three beautiful daughters. When not landscaping, he enjoys kayak fishing, camping, grilling and coaching.

Jerrod grew up all over the US and briefly lived in Germany. He lives west of Chanhassen, MN in Glencoe. Jerrod has been landscaping for 20 year and enjoys working with stone. He loves seeing the glee on customer’s faces when their landscape project is complete. When he’s not landscaping, Jerrod spends time with his wife, Melissa their 4 children. Jerrod likes to teach his girls to fish and go on family camping trips.
