Out With the Old and in With the New

We are very excited to launch our NEW Blue Marble Landscape website, after almost a year under development!

While our previous website did the job we needed it to do, we felt that a facelift was in order. A few of our goals, when we initially started this project, were to make it easier for our clients to navigate around and to provide up-to-date photos, information, and style. With the help of our web development company, NADA GLOBAL, we believe we have succeeded in achieving these goals.

You may also notice a little variance in our company logo. Keeping our look current is important to us so we gave our logo a bit of a facelift, too. Even though our logo has changed a bit, our name (and the meaning behind it) remains the same.

What exactly IS the meaning behind our name? Well, did you know that in 1972, the astronauts of the Apollo 17 space mission took a look at the earth from space and said that it looked like a big blue glass marble? A photo was taken and named “The Blue Marble.” It was the first clear image taken of our entire planet. The photo extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the Antarctica south polar cap. If you look close you can see that almost the entire coastline of Africa is visible. It’s an extraordinary photo!  Our goal, at Blue Marble Landscape, is to give our clients extraordinary service and to partner with you to enhance this big “Blue Marble” that we live on.

We encourage you to browse through our new website to see features such as: company photos, testimonials, the latest news and updates, and other pertinent information. Visit our website, and more importantly our blog, regularly to get the latest on what’s happening in the landscape industry, tips on personal home gardening, and other interesting information. And, as always, we welcome your comments and ideas!
