It all started with a 15-year-old.

When a teenage Dan Cristiani watched a power line company taking down huge numbers of trees, inspiration struck. The young Cristiani began cutting up the downed timber and selling it for firewood from the back of a pick-up truck. From that first entrepreneurial seed, seventeen companies would eventually sprout and grow, yielding combined annual sales exceeding $20 million.

What began decades ago as a small landscaping business quickly evolved into excavation, land clearing and site preparation on a large scale. From that core business, today the Cristiani companies include mulch, topsoil and compost producers, equipment sales, farming, snow removal, residential and commercial real estate development and more.

Underlying all of these companies is Dan’s commitment to three ideas:

• Do an outstanding job on every project, large or small.
• Look for ways to protect, preserve and recycle our local natural resources.
• Give back to the communities we serve.
