In 1975, a young man with a passion for the outdoors and a uniquely creative mind decided to buy a 1966 GMC pickup truck and a used 21″ mower. He was left with only a few dollars in his pocket and didn’t have help or a garage to store his newly purchased equipment. What he did have though, was a dream to pursue. It was at this time, Dan Skarbnik Sr. founded Lakeland Landscaping.
Fast forward 42 years and many things have changed, but some remain the same. Dan Skarbnik Sr is still driving a pickup and pursuing his dreams. He has an office and nursery, shop to store his equipment, excellent employees and a large family to support him. In those 42 years, he is accredited with having a strong record for reliability, an unmatched level of experience in the trade, and an unparalleled creativity for landscape design. Over the years he has developed a reputation that extends throughout the Morris, Sussex, Somerset, Essex, Warren and Hunterdon counties. He has built a company that covers all facets of the landscape, from concept to completion.
In 2005, after graduating from the University of Delaware studying Landscape Horticulture and Plant Biology, I came aboard full time to pursue and share the passion my father and I have for our work and the business. My role is to continue the legacy my father had started many years ago by utilizing the same core values and principles that got us to where we are today. Lakeland’s foundation is simple, its family.
Our family extends beyond our next of kin and to our long term valued employees and our clients. We are a team that has a love and passion for what we do, a creative perspective, and a hard working mindset. This is the formula that helps us achieve the results we deliver to our clients from job to job and from year to year. On behalf of my father and I and the Lakeland team, our family looks forward to the opportunity to share our knowledge, experience and creativity with you in making your house a home for you and your family.
