Our Story
Since 2001, Canadian Rockies Landscape (CRL) has established itself as a leader in both artistic and practical landscape design and construction. Harnessing outdoor spaces that are both visually stunning yet incredibly functional! Darren, together with his wife Jenn, operate CRL with a family focus. We believe in being rooted in the community, growing together by building relationships with suppliers, clients, and the community. We partner with many local businesses and charities, supporting organizations focused on community goals, youth sports and community beautification or accessibility.
Meet Darren & Jenn
We met while attending the University of Guelph. Canadian Rockies Landscape became a way for us to utilize Darren’s 15+ years’ experience in the golf course industry as a superintendent, and Jenn’s artistic design and environmental science background to provide unique and creative products for clients. We’ve grown the business to stand out from other contractors through the personalized client focus and the quality design build process we provide.
