Since 1993 Land Designs Unlimited LLC has been providing superior landscape contracting services.  Our priority is to treat you honestly and fairly.  Customer service and commitment are too often lacking in these modern times, and we strive to fill that void.

Land Designs Unlimited LLC was established by John W. Holden.  John graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Connecticut in 1992 with a Bachelors degree in Ornamental Horticulture.  A memorable activity at UCONN, besides the basketball games, was a town green he designed for the annual Parents Day Horticulture Show.  While attending college, John worked as a summer intern at the Bartlett Arboretum in Stamford, Connecticut.
 

John is a member of the Connecticut Nursery and Landscape Association, and became a Certified Connecticut Nurseryman in 1996.  He continues his education by attending numerous seminars and shows, including the 2004 New England Grows trade show and the 2004 Perennial Plant Conference.  In September, 2003 John participated in a seminar on the installation and maintenance of Low Voltage Landscape Lighting. We are proud to announce the addition of this service.  In February of 2004 John earned the title of Certified Concrete Paver Installer from the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute. He participated in two days of intense training and passed a written examination demonstrating his knowledge of paver installation methods.

John is married to Karyn Holden.  His interests include restoring his vintage 1820 farmhouse, loading and stoking the wood stove through the winter, and long walks with his faithful companion, Madison.  During a vacation to California in 2004 John visited the General Sherman Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum), the largest tree in the world.
