Darryl Zellmer founded Turf & Tree Worx in 1992. Darryl had a part-time snowplowing and lawn-mowing business that he began in 1989. During the 1991 season, he worked for Evergreen Lawn Corp. During the spring of 1992, he added lawn fertilization to his business and began his endeavor full-time with Turf & Tree Worx. Running the business out of his home on the northwest side of Milwaukee, the Company grew and Darryl added several employees and more equipment. In 1995, Turf & Tree Worx rented a small business warehouse in Milwaukee.

In 1996, Darryl moved his residence and Turf & Tree Worx to its current location in West Bend (Town of Trenton). Due to the significant client base in the Milwaukee area and the need to be established in West Bend and the surrounding areas, Turf & Tree Worx kept the Milwaukee location while building a client base in West Bend. Turf & Tree Worx closed the Milwaukee location in the spring of 1998.

To date, Turf & Tree Worx has expanded its maintenance, lawn care, tree service, and snow removal functions to a full-service lawn and landscape, design/build Company. The Company is proud of its achievement and attributes success to offering a variety of services with a teamwork approach coupled with a high standard of expectations. By working together and placing, a high value on every employee’s role, Turf & Tree Worx has created an atmosphere that employees and clients appreciate.
