Do you want to spruce up your landscaping this summer but don’t know where to start? Lowenoake Landscape Development creates custom landscaping with families in mind. President J. Brett Hughes said visibility is important for families with children, “parents want to be able to see a play structure from the house, we take that into account.” He also suggested that families with teens consider a fire pit versus an outdoor fireplace, “kids seem to love congregating around a fire pit, while adults enjoy sitting by a fireplace.”
