ABOUT US

Known for our meticulously cut lawns with signature lawn striping when we first started Lamphear’s offering lawn mowing services and snow plowing in 2001, we have evolved into a full-service landscape company designing and building outdoor living spaces featuring firepits, water features, pergolas, pavilions and other hardscapes. And in 2021 we opened Lamphear’s Supply Yard—making all our topsoil, gravel, limestone, and hardy plants we have been using for decades now available to do-it-yourselfers.

The owner of Lamphear’s Lawn Service, Kory started mowing lawns and landscaping when he was 13 years old. His passion for landscaping was sparked by his uncle’s small lawn care business, and growing up on a farm made the work come natural to Kory. From day one when he founded the company in 2001, he had a dream to build a large company that was known for its quality work. Every day he continues to pursue that dream. And he values the relationships he builds with both employees and customers when operating his business. A hands-on owner, Kory spends most of his time on jobsites ensuring quality results and communicating company systematic procedures with his managers and employees. He sets the tone for the strong family-centered atmosphere at work, as his family and children are his top priorities.

Kory also enjoys many outdoor recreational activities such as fishing and hunting, and he has a great passion for motocross.

Marcus and Kory are cousins and he has worked side-by-side with Kory before Lamphear’s was even started. So when Lamphear’s Lawn Service was created, Marcus already knew how to mow and weed and he became Kory’s first employee. Marcus sets up mowing schedules for each crew, hires and trains new employees, and is responsible for equipment maintenance. He supervises lawn maintenance technicians to ensure everything runs efficiently—and he goes out in the field and works alongside his crew members.

Marcus enjoys taking his daughter and son to parks, the zoo and other fun places. He likes to hunt, fish, ride dirt bikes and ATVs, and anything that he can do outdoors. He is adventurous and always willing to learn new things every day.

With nearly two decades of experience in the lawn maintenance industry, Ray is continuously learning and taking on new projects in the shop. Lamphear’s does most of the equipment repairs and maintenance in-house, and Ray especially takes pride in tackling projects that other companies would send out to a repair shop to do or would consider the piece of equipment not repairable. Anything from welding in new floor pans on an older truck to installing a dump truck liner gets done in-house under Ray’s supervision.



Ray spends his personal time with his wife and kids riding mountain bikes. He also builds bike trails at a local park for the community.

Josh started at Lamphear’s as a lawn technician, then worked his way up to a crew leader and eventually moved into a management position. He manages all of the lawn account contracts and oversees multiple mowing crews. Working in a human resource capacity, he also does all of the hiring and helps market the company. You can see his creativity on display as he films and edits all of the videos and creates the posts on Facebook. A true multi-tasker, Josh also oversees all the clothing, from uniforms to out-of-work wear.

In his free time, he loves being outdoors riding dirt bikes, hunting, and fishing. He also enjoys traveling with his wife and their two dogs.
