“This company wouldn’t be what it is without our crew,” says Brian. “We’re a family.”
Rooted Locally: The Story Behind Partridge Landscaping Some businesses begin with a business plan. Others begin with a lawnmower and an 11-year-old kid determined to make things look better. That’s exactly how Partridge Landscaping began — not with a fancy truck or a team of employees, but with Brian Partridge mowing lawns and blowing snow for neighbours around his home in 2001. He was 11. His very first client? Still on the books, 24 years later. “Back then, I had a push mower, a snow shovel, and a lot of ambition,” Brian recalls with a smile. “But I treated every job like it mattered — because it did.” By 2007, at just 17, Brian had grown his client list to 15 and acquired a truck and license. That same year, with support from the Small Business Centre, he formally launched Partridge Yard Maintenance, servicing London and surrounding areas. The very first official client under the new business license was a couple who owned several rental properties — a pivotal moment in the company’s growth. “They trusted me before I had a crew, or even a logo,” says Brian. “They were my biggest client at the time, and to this day, we still proudly service their properties.” After graduating high school, Brian enrolled in Fanshawe College’s Horticulture Technician Program in 2008 — a move that fueled the company’s next evolution. Armed with industry knowledge and hands-on experience, he rebranded to Partridge Landscaping, shifting toward full-scale design and build projects while maintaining the year-round maintenance services clients had come to rely on. Over the past 17 years, the company has continued to grow steadily — never chasing explosive growth, but instead focusing on building long-term client relationships, hiring skilled people, and delivering high-quality, honest work. Today, Partridge Landscaping is a fixture in the Komoka and Byron communities, offering expert landscape construction, design, and seasonal property maintenance. But what really sets them apart is the team.

And it all started with a kid and a lawnmower.
