Scapes of the South, Issue 03, is a love letter to the Southern landscape, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with y’all. This issue embodies everything we hold dear—our roots in the land, our connection to the people who nurture it, and our commitment to celebrating the stories that make the South so special. ?? We’ve got some exciting news to kick things off: ServeScape is branching out beyond #Atlanta and setting its sights on #Nashville and #Charlotte. With locally grown plants and expert design services, we’re bringing Southern-grown beauty right to your doorstep. Whether you’re a first-time gardener or a seasoned pro, we’ve got something for everyone. This issue also shines a spotlight on Jamila Norman, a visionary urban farmer whose Patchwork City Farms is transforming landscapes into food-producing sanctuaries. Her work is nothing short of inspiring, and we’re honored to be partnering with her to bring these designs to life. We’re also paying homage to Glass Farm Nursery, a Georgia gem we’ve proudly welcomed into the ServeScape family. Their legacy of native plants and ferns is one for the books. So grab a sweet tea, settle in, and enjoy the stories of growth and community that make the South such a beautiful place to call home. ?? https://lnkd.in/eZVZ6rzZ #scapesofthesouth #servescape #plantjoy #atlantainfluenceseverything

AI for a New Era in Landscape Architecture and Horticulture. ?? As AI continues to reshape industries, it's crucial to understand the evolving landscape and position ourselves strategically. "The Emergence of AI-Powered Services Firms" by Alex Brussell and Brian O'Malley at Forerunner highlights several transformative insights about the integration of AI into service industries, which resonate deeply with our mission at Scapify and ServeScape . 1. Infrastructure vs. Complete Service: As technologies mature, businesses must either become the underlying infrastructure or deliver the complete service. O'Malley argues that middlemen offering solutions often get squeezed out (yet, ironically, The Home Depot and Amazon are the squeezer). This is particularly relevant for Scapify as we strive to be the go-to SaaS platform that directly serves growers and garden centers with end-to-end solutions. 2. Human Touch in AI-Powered Services: Certain services, such as law, healthcare, and landscape architecture, require credentialed individuals to be valid. At ServeScape, we recognize that while AI can enhance productivity, the expertise and personal touch of our landscape architects remain irreplaceable. Even the American Society of Landscape Architects emphasizes the importance of site visits for landscape architects, ensuring designs are tailored to specific site conditions and contexts. This is crucial for maintaining the high standards of our work. 3. High-Trust Transactions: Industries like investment banking and recruiting thrive on trust and confidence, which are essential for high-stakes transactions. In horticulture and landscape architecture, trust is equally critical, especially considering the significant investments involved. The average homeowner spends between $1,277 and $5,856 on landscaping, with a national average of about $3,415 a year. $30k+ on a 10-year LTV. These high dollar amounts highlight the necessity for trusted, knowledgeable professionals who can ensure that clients get the best value for their investments. 4. AI-Native Service Firms: The future belongs to firms that integrate AI at every stage, aligning incentives and creating cultures that embrace innovation. At Scapify, we’re not just adopting AI tools; we're embedding AI into our core processes to offer more efficient, reliable, and scalable solutions to our clients. 5. The Green Industry is a People Business: AI will make certain roles even more valuable, especially those that require judgment, trust, and relationship-building. For Scapify and ServeScape, this means leveraging AI to enhance our human-centric services, ensuring that our clients benefit from the best of both worlds—cutting-edge technology and personalized expertise.
