ABOUT US

Ed's Buckthorn Control was created after Ed moved to Minnetonka in 2015 and dealt with his own invasive plant problems. After properly managing various invasive plants, he witnessed some of the native flora and fauna returning! 

​

Then, the real fun began - restoring a natural area previously dominated by native plants! This was so successful and rewarding that Ed felt the urge to turn this passion into a mission: to help other people restore balanced native ecosystems. 

​

The business was founded in 2018, and ever since, we have been a small team of people who give a darn. We have helped hundreds of homeowners and several municipalities over the years, while expanding our knowledge and methods. 

​

​

We take care of our ecosystem today, to ensure there is abundant healthy natural lands for future generations to enjoy.

 

A message from Ed:

 

"I love Minnesota's beautiful natural landscapes. I love the magnificence of the formations, the colors, the sounds, the feeling of being in the forests and prairies, the animals that inhabit them, even the tiny details of the mushrooms and mosses.

 

Each landowner controls a piece of the big wonderful native landscape we all share, and it is our duty to restore the balance that was disrupted by our settlement and poor choices, by controlling invasive species, and restoring the balance with native plants. 

​

The strength of our ecosystem relies on its diversity, and it requires our help. 

 

We and our environment need each other."
