Joe's Story Old As Dirt....
Joe Fountain likes to joke that his slogan, “Old as Dirt” is a reference to his age. It is instead a testament to the 40+ years of expertise and experience in landscaping. Joe began his career in 1973 at the age of 16 while working for Harkey Nursery in Charlotte, NC. Since his time at the nursery, Joe also gained valuable experience as a past co-owner of Park Road Garden Center where they raised and sold plants in a retail operation. In 1983, Joe began Fountain Landscaping and has provided Charlotte with landscaping services ever since.
For the past 40 years, Fountain Landscaping has provided landscaping services to clients throughout the Charlotte area. Joe has become more than a landscaper to his clients, but a friend. Joe values long-term relationships with his clients and employees. He says, “My customers are my friends. I go to parties at their houses, I go to church with them. I want to be able to yell at them when they don’t water their plants.” Joe’s passion for landscaping and focus on client relationships is what has led to Fountain Landscaping’s success over the past 40 years.
Just ask any of his clients…

Joe has a great eye for what will look good - He is very knowledgeable about plantings and landscaping and he and his crew worked very hard on my project. Joe kept me informed as to timing and how long it would take to complete. I am so grateful he was able to complete my project at the end of January during our brief respite from the rain as his work has held up to this monsoon we have been having-
I have nothing but good things to say about Joe and his company. ( And I had a really terrible mess from a previous company and that did not deter Joe at all! He was constantly overseeing the project.... Great great job!!

April 7, 2018Fantastic experience with Joe and his crew doing landscape design. We've been a customer of his for more than 15 years. He's extremely reliable, pleasant to talk to, and has... read more great design sense. He recommended easy care, hearty, good value plants (just what we were looking for), took into account how our shrubs would look year-round by balancing things that flower at different times, and did a great job with the lighting too. The trees he put in have done great and filled out nicely, unlike our older trees we got through a different landscaper. Great value, great experience.
