Our Quality Assurance Committee recently hosted a couple Winter training sessions for the Landscape Division, one focused on effective internal communication, the other on external communication. Both emphasized the importance of clear and timely communication – a cornerstone of successful teamwork, efficient problem-solving, and exceptional client service. #communication #training #teamwork

Wishing you a joyful season filled with peace, laughter, and time with loved ones. Here’s to an exciting 2025 ahead! With heartfelt appreciation, The Thalmann Family

As we in the Chicago area face some frigid temperatures this week, it signals both that Winter is here and the end of another landscape season. We’re grateful for everyone’s efforts all year long and for the opportunity to celebrate with some delicious tamales and prizes! #landscape #gratitude #team

Just as we grow best from necessary nutrients, a solid foundation and support, so do plants! Did you know that one gram of soil can contain up to 10 billion organisms? That's more than there are people on Earth! Also, 95% of all food produced relies on soil. Today we take a moment to recognize the importance of soil and its impact on us and our environment. With awareness we can protect this valuable finite resource. Soil Association #worldsoilday #soil #plants

Christmas trees are an integral part of many people's holiday traditions. At Chalet, we experience just how much effort it takes to connect someone with their ideal tree to create those magical moments. From purchasing, receiving, unloading, measuring, and tagging to displaying, selling, baling, transporting to our pick up area, and securing to our customer's vehicle. Many people contribute to a smooth tree shopping experience. We're very grateful for all of our teams for helping our customers to create wonderful holiday memories. #holiday #Christmastrees #teamwork
