PATCH LANDSCAPING
Patch has been growing as a company since 1991; and has offered consistently excellent service to its customers since its foundation. Pictured to the left, is Patrick Hulne, mastermind behind Patch Landscaping and Snow Removal Inc. It’s hard to believe on this Polaroid shot, but it once was a one horse show. For the past twenty one years, Patch has been offering beautiful landscape designs, maintenance, as well as, snow removal for Chicago. We continue to grow everyday.
Patch Landscaping and Snow Removal pride’s itself with our amazing staff. Patch Landscaping would not be where we are today without our hardworking team. We love to have FUN, while getting the job done! Most of our team has been here for more than 10+ years. We focus on being there for our clients, because we like to get to know our client’s as they mean everything to us.
THE PATCH TEAM:
Kristen Hulne (Owner)
Kristen graduated from National Louis University with a B.A. In education. She taught for CPS in an elementary school for ten years. When she is not here helping with administrative duties and keeping us on our toes around the office, she is busy with her and Patrick’s five Kids! The “office mom” loves to keep everyone laughing and working hard.
Kristen loves everything there is to do outdoors! You can find her hiking, biking, and boating. She volunteers time in the kids school and with the Girl Scouts of America mentoring young girls. She is active in the church and community whenever possible. Finding time to laugh is as important as finding time to sleep. We do much more laughing around here! Kristen is fiercely proud of her Patch family and little “Patchlings”at home too
