Behind every successful job site is a significant amount of preparation and coordination. Stacy Unruh, Office Manager at Wetlands Irrigation & Turf, spoke about the critical behind-the-scenes effort that ensures field crews are set up for success each day. “There’s so much that happens in the office before we send them out there, just so they can be successful with their day,” she said. The company has also invested heavily in its team, building clear role descriptions and performance scorecards to define expectations and success. Olin noted, “I think probably the number one thing is investing in our team… building role descriptions, clarifying scorecards. Things that really help them know – here’s the expectations, here’s what good looks like, here’s how you can be successful.” Weekly safety meetings and service and communication training sessions further support their commitment to excellence.
Staying ahead of industry advancements is another priority for Wetlands Irrigation & Turf. “There’s a lot of new technology, things coming out now that are having a huge impact on the green industry, and we want to be a company that is, you know, on the front edge of that,” Olin shared.

hose kinds of things on your schedule,” Olin explained. And when winter arrives, clients don’t have to worry about snow and ice disrupting their routine—Wetlands handles that, too. As for the holiday lighting that Wetlands Irrigation does, Olin added with enthusiasm, “That’s my favorite thing.
