Our Core Values
Safety & Well-Being
It is not only our responsibility but our moral obligation to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved in every aspect of our work. This includes our clients, subcontractors and the public. We make every reasonable effort to eliminate or minimize hazards and risks that can cause injury, illness, or damage to your property. Health and safety are both our corporate and personal values.
Genuine Relationships
We cherish the personal relationships we have built with our clients and truly appreciate their loyalty. Our client relationships are more than just business partnerships. We aim to build long-standing relationships based on integrity, mutual respect and trust.
Environmental Sustainability
The protection and preservation of the environment is a core value at Yasemin Greenscapes. Environmental sustainability is about making responsible decisions that will reduce our negative impact on the environment. Consideration of all impacts of our landscaping practices on the environment is integral to the work we do.
We offer entirely fossil fuel-free landscape maintenance services with our battery-powered gardening equipment. In Vancouver, we exclusively use electric bicycles and electric vehicles to run our operation. Not only are we effectively reducing our carbon footprint, but we’re also sparing you from unnecessary noise.
We also offer completely organic landscaping services. We never, ever use toxic herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, or other chemicals. Everything we bring onto your property is safe for you, your family and pets, and the environment. As organic gardeners, we work in harmony with nature, not against it. We create plant health through the creation of healthy soil and healthy ecosystems.
As a “GreenScaping” business, we strive to make environmentally conscious landscaping decisions and embrace the “4 Rs” – reduce, reuse, recycle, and rethink – in our work practices. We are committed to incorporating sustainable practices into the many aspects of our work, of our daily lives, and in the community of which we are a part.
