If you haven’t noticed, it’s really hot outside! This means a lot of landscape and trees need extra water and irrigation care this summer. And since we’re not under any water conservation warnings, irrigation has been an important element in maintaining a beautiful lawn and landscape. If you enjoy irrigation or landscape work, the Parke Company is accepting applications! Landscape and lawn maintenance are vital to the Parke Company team, especially in the summertime when heat is at its peak.

And while you could just work at any landscape or irrigation company, the Parke Company enhances your skills with extensive training and a pleasant work atmosphere.

Here are just a couple of ways training and teamwork can help you prosper at the Parke Company:

Benefits of Our Irrigation Services

Just like tree care, training is fundamental. The Parke Company will hone your irrigation or landscaping skills. The Parke Company wants its employees to succeed in their craft.

There are other factors for irrigation, arborist and landscape workers; growth and management opportunities are just some. In addition, the Parke Company provides highly competitive compensation packages (dependent upon past experience).

Planning for the Cold Months with the Parke Company

Even though Nashville’s temperatures are still in the high 80s and 90s, it’s time to consider planning for the cooler months and how that might affect your trees and landscape. Even with school back in session and Titans football season starting, it’s more reason to let your landscape and tree care go on the back burner, but don’t let it! Call the Parke Company so you don’t fall behind on your tree care and lawn care needs. Depending on the project, the Parke Company requires preparation and advanced scheduling for projects. Not only does this ensure the job is done correctly, but safely. This is why prepping for fall now is a crucial step in ensuring your landscape, lawns and trees are treated and cared for before the freezing temperatures set in.

If your residence or commercial property needs maintenance, here are a few things to consider to ensure you’re getting them done in plenty of time:

Even though trees go dormant in the winter, that doesn’t mean they should be neglected. To avoid damage during ice and snow storms, have branches checked for stability by certified arborists at Parke. Other important projects completed by Parke are healthcare checkups, crown thinning, tree transplants, tree removal and many others. These projects take time and thorough planning before they can be completed. This ensures the safety of Parke’s arborists as well as the safety of the tree.

Mulching and debris pickup are other popular services for the Parke Company in the autumn and winter. As the leaves on trees begin to fall, removing them is just another chore you don’t want to have to deal with on a Football Sunday. If you have a stumps or dead trees, chipping and grinding is an option. In addition, landscapes and gardens will need to be prepped and covered before the cold sets in. If you’ve got a large property with a lot of landscape, call the Parke Company to ensure you are good to go before the first snow.

These services are really important to complete before the colder months because it raises any red flags that could be potentially harmful later on. In addition, some services require a lot of prepping before the project can start, like the video below shows. Parke will monitor for damage or disease and set a plan in place for your trees and landscape to live for years to come.

And tree care and landscape aren’t the only things to consider. It’s never too early to call Parke to schedule a consultation for holiday decorating! The team will work with both residential and commercial areas all around Nashville and the Middle Tennessee area. For landscape and tree information, contact a certified arborist or a landscape specialist today!

To-Do List for Your Fall Landscape

September 30, 2026September 15, 2020 by The Parke Company

We can hardly believe it, but the nights are cooling down in Middle Tennessee. School has picked back up and halloween candy is starting to fill the grocery stores. And even though the days are getting shorter, we’re still spending time outside enjoying the cooler weather and watching the changing colors of the trees. But even if you spend time outside with friends and family, you probably don’t want to spend it doing fall landscape and clean-up. Contact the Parke Company to complete your to-do list so you can sit back and relax.

The leaves are one of the biggest signifiers of fall. Chlorophyll is what usually gives leaves that rich green color during the summertime, but during the colder months, leaves loose full access to sun and food. The leaves turn yellow and orange, then finally brown. If you have a lot of trees on your property and along your landscape, the amount of leaves on the ground can be overwhelming. And it’s not just the leaves to consider. Your landscape and the trees themselves will need to be monitored and cared for through the winter. In addition to leaf clean-up, take care of your landscape needs in one swoop this season with the help of the Parke Company.

Other landscape services for the fall include:

Leaf mulching and chipping services: Once all your leaves are cleaned up, what do you do with them? Parke can mulch the leaves for your future landscape plans. This not only cuts overall cost, but helps you to repurpose waste. A win-win!

Dead limb and tree removal: Before winter fully sets in, schedule a time where Parke can come out to assess your trees for dead limbs and other concerns. This will help prevent any unforeseen issues that could occur during severe winter weather where fall limbs and trees can cause damage.

Regularly scheduled visits: Regular visits from Parke’s landscape staff is a great way to ensure your property is ready for the fall. They will check for any possible disease and insect infestation that could be a problem in the future. Regular check-ups for your landscape will leave you stress-free and knowing your property is in good hands during the fall.

Autumn is a beautiful season here in Middle Tennessee. Enjoy the beauty, but don’t deal with all the maintenance– leave that up to the crew at the Parke Company. For more information about their services, call today at (615) 405-6548.

Leaf Pickup and What to Do with Them

September 30, 2026September 15, 2020 by The Parke Company

Though there are many great things about fall (Titans football, pumpkin patches at Cheekwood and cooler weather), there is one literal downfall — the leaves. Though the leaves changing color is one of the beauties of the season, it can be a nuisance for when it comes time to pick it all up. But wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t have to clean up all those leaves? Well, you don’t! With the help from the Parke Company’s landscape team, leaf cleanup has never been simpler. Plus, there are great ways to utilize the leaves after they’ve fallen.

Once the leaves have been removed from your landscape, they can then turn into compost. How cool is that? The team knows that Nashvillians want to recycle and repurpose and what better way to do that than with the leaves that fell on the ground? Composting is one of the most efficient ways to use up all of the fallen leaves, so it’s a no-brainer! After the compost has been processed, it’s a great fertilizer for soil later. The Parke Company can discuss the best options for storing your compost and using it as fertilizer in the months to come! It’s a great option, especially if Parke already takes care of your landscape and irrigation needs as well.

Dealing with fallen leaves doesn’t have to be a chore! In fact, check off mutiple things from your fall to-do list with the help with Parke’s arborists and landscape team. With their help, they’ll care of those pesky piles of foliage. And while you’re at it, the Parke Company’s team can take care of all your seasonal outdoor decorations too. If you have mums or other fall plants you want to spread around your property or if you just want a simple mailbox decoration, the Parke Company can take care of that for you.

The Parke Company works hard to make sure your landscape and trees are in tip-top shape, for any and all seasons. As the Nashville leaves begin to change, be sure to schedule an appointment with the Parke Company to get you set up for leaf pickup, holiday decorating and any mulching/composting you might need.
