Old Farms Landscaping Inc. is a family-owned landscaping company based in the Farmington Valley, Connecticut, with 38 years of continuous operation. Founded before much of the Farmington Valley’s current suburban development took shape, Old Farms has grown alongside the communities it serves — developing deep familiarity with local soil conditions, plant performance in the specific microclimate of the Avon-Simsbury-Farmington corridor, and the landscape aesthetics that characterize this part of central Connecticut.
Family-owned landscaping companies with multi-decade operating histories are increasingly rare in a market where labor costs, insurance requirements, and equipment investment have consolidated the industry toward larger regional operations. A company that has remained family-owned and independent for 38 years has done so by maintaining the quality and service relationships that generate the repeat business and referrals that sustain a local operation over time.
The Farmington Valley is a particularly beautiful part of Connecticut — rolling hills, mature tree canopy, historic town centers, and a mix of colonial-era properties and newer executive-level homes create a diverse and demanding landscape maintenance market. Homeowners in this corridor typically invest significantly in their properties and expect landscape contractors who understand both the aesthetic traditions of Connecticut country landscapes and the technical requirements of the plants and hardscape materials they’re working with.
Services at a full-service landscaping company of this vintage typically span lawn maintenance, seasonal cleanups, pruning and trimming, mulching, landscape installation, hardscaping, and snow management — the complete scope of what a homeowner needs to keep their property looking well-maintained and developing in line with their vision across multiple seasons and years.
For Farmington Valley homeowners in Avon, Simsbury, Farmington, Granby, and surrounding communities looking for a family-owned landscaping company with 38 years of local operating history, Old Farms Landscaping offers the kind of place-specific knowledge and long-term relationship continuity that distinguishes a community-rooted local business from a larger regional contractor.
