A family business, built on reputation

Jeff and Susan Pottorff founded North Bay Landscape Management in 1996 with four employees. Thirty years later it's still family-run, and it still grows the same way it started: one satisfied client at a time.

"We take pride in putting our customers' needs first and taking the proactive approach in managing their properties."

Our history

The beginning
A lawnmower in Marin County
Jeff Pottorff grew up in Marin County. In high school he mowed lawns to help take care of his parents, and the work turned into a lifelong passion for landscapes.
1996
Jeff and Susan founded the company
Jeff and Susan founded North Bay Landscape Management in Petaluma with a crew of four.
Growing by word of mouth
Built on reputation
No shortcuts and no big ad campaigns. The company grew slowly, job by job, as clients recommended North Bay to other property owners, wineries and developers.
