Jessica Riedell, Owner
I have a degree in Horticulture from Iowa State University and have worked in the landscaping industry for the past 20 years. I also joined and served on the Illinois Landscape Contractors Association Sustainability Committee for many years and have a passion for sustainable landscaping practices. I am still involved in the ILCA and have met and worked with many industry leaders through my involvement.
I love working with passionate clients to manage and always improve their landscapes throughout the Chicagoland area. I have great customers that have provided me spectacular opportunities to work on awesome projects over the years. I started The Riedell Group because of all that support from those industry leaders, customers, and family. I have a desire to continue to provide great service and beautiful landscaping with sustainable practices.
I believe it is important to continue to learn and grow through educational opportunities and experiences. I love working with passionate customers to manage and always improve their landscapes. Whether it is entertaining for parties or preparing for a garden wedding we are here to help.

JESSICA RIEDELL OF THE RIEDELL GROUP, LLC ACHIEVES RECERTIFICATION OF THE LANDSCAPE INDUSTRY CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN NATIONAL DESIGNATION
The achievement of the Landscape Industry Certified designation demonstrates a distinguished level of professionalism. Certification is voluntary and it represents a professional’s dedication to exhibiting superior knowledge in his or her field.

NALP’s Landscape Industry Certified program, supported and used internationally, offers seven different certifications that include expertise in lawn care, interior plant care, horticulture, landscape care, and business management.
The National Association of Landscape Professionals (formerly PLANET) is the voice of 100,000 landscape and lawn care industry professionals who create and maintain healthy green spaces. The association advocates on issues impacting its members and offers mentoring and education programs that inspire its members to excellence. Many members become Landscape Industry Certified, achieving the highest standard of industry expertise, business professionalism and knowledge. Get more information at www.landscapeprofessionals.org
Future of The Company
Although the landscaping industry is full of small businesses, I have the experience of Brickman Quality, twenty years of field knowledge working with landscape crews, and other service providers in the industry. I have a degree in horticulture which is the study of plants and have many relationships across the industry allowing The Riedell Group to provide all kinds of related services at a high-quality standard like plant health care sprays, tree trimming and turf applications. I have worked alongside many of the crew members for nearly 20 years and have worked and trained them to provide high-quality, attractive, sustainable, and affordable landscape services.
