The National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP) has developed a new suite of materials, called the Root of Happiness, to help promote the value of healthy lawns and landscapes—and the pros who take care of them. These materials are available to any landscaping industry professional, not just NALP members. “We really want landscape and lawn care companies to share them far and wide,” said Missy Henriksen, vice president of public affairs for NALP.

The messaging was created by a cross section of landscape/lawn care experts and technical advisors, and is based on years of research from both NALP and its partners such as RISE (from consumer focus groups), along with other sources. “We have distilled down the best messages, facts and figures to make the case for the benefits of professionally managed landscapes,” Henriksen said.
