We contacted Joel and described to him that our mother's yard was in severe need of landscaping. He came, looked at the job, met with my brother and I and agreed to come back later that week with some help. Later that week he dropped off a very nice girl, but she definitely was not accustomed to doing yard work. She was there for 3 hours lopping baby trees down, hauling branches, raking the yard, etc. then Joel came and cut the grass. When he was done we talked about some of the trees that were dead or close to the house that needed to be cut down. He said he couldn't do it all that day, and he'd have to work around his off-shore work schedule, but that he'd be back to finish the trees and that he would cut my mom's grass every two weeks when he was back onshore. We asked him how much would it be for the work he had done so far plus cutting down two trees and hauling them away. He gave us a price and we paid him right then and there with the promise he'd come back and cut down the trees. A few weeks went by and he didn't go back. My brother and I took turns calling him and he kept promising he would go back. Again, my mother is disabled and we live out of state so we were trusting that Joel would follow through - especially since we PAID him to do the work before we left Lafayette to go back to where we live. About two months later, Joel finally went back after several phone calls from my brother and myself. However, I was back in Lafayette visiting my mom in May and I noticed that he did not cut the trees down completely and he left what he did cut down. SO my poor mother has pieces of dead wood all over her yard. Attempts to contact Joel again to see if he would come dispose of the wood have been unanswered, and he never cut her grass after that first time so we had to finally find someone else to cut her grass that we pay via check in the mail every two weeks. I was looking for a trustworthy person. Someone who I felt confident would do what they were paid to do and do the right thing. That is not Joel Dupre.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!! Long read but very informative on this businesses' practices....My parents…read morehad been customers with all seasons for years. This spring they came out to give my mom an estimate on her spring clean up and planting. There was a hedge (about 12 feet tall) between her and her neighbor. This hedge was over grown and belonged to her neighbor so she asked that all seasons just "trim up her side so the hedge didn't hang so far into her yard." The person there to give her an estimate said "sure". The day came for the spring maintenance and planting...the all seasons crew was working for several hours. When she looked outside the hedge was completely GONE...cut to the ground! My mom went out and told them that first of all that wasn't her hedge and second of all they were supposed to trim it up NOT cut it to the ground! On June 11, 2025 I went by all seasons and spoke with Tess. I explained to her the situation and she agreed that that was unacceptable. She asked that I send her a picture so she could discuss it with the owner but that it did need to be rectified. I sent the pictures while I was speaking with her. On July 3, 2025 I reached out to Tess inquiring as to the status of the shrubs being replaced and was told that she had briefly spoken to the owner but he was out of town and she would speak with him again the following week. On July 8th Tess texted me and said the owner was back in town but had gone straight to a job site and she would speak with him as soon as possible. 10 days later, on July 18th (a Friday) I again reached out to Tess and was told their office had been closed the day before and she would speak with him on Monday. A week later on July 25th I reached out again regarding the status and indicated that I felt like my mom was being put off. Tess responded and said the owner would like to meet with me at my mom's house on the 31st. On July 31st I drove 45 minutes from my home to meet with Peter (the owner). During our meeting he attempted to tell me his crew made a judgment call. I reminded him that they were supposed to TRIM the hedges...not cut them to the ground. He then said that he appreciated her being a long time client and would send my mom a list of quick growing shrubs so she could let him know what she would like plantd and to give him about 8 weeks to get some other jobs done and then they would come and replace the shrubs. Fast forward to today...December 16 (almost 5 months later) and still not even the promised email with a list of possible replacements. I reached out to Tess and wanted to thank her and the owner for the horrible customer service. She responded with "Peter explained we were in a drought until recently. There is a work order for January". I informed her that a drought was never discussed on July 31st or any time after that and reminded her that there still hasn't been an email with a list of possible plants. No one reached out to say "hey we are in a drought. Maybe we should wait". Nothing. Just left my mother "on hold" for 5 months. And now all of a sudden there is a work order..,doubt it. If you are looking for a company that does what they are supposed to, takes responsibility for errors, communicates with their customers, treats their long time customers with respect and values their business....this is NOT the nursery for you. If you are looking for a company that does what they feel is best without ever consulting the paying customer, removes plants that belong to other people and then charges YOU for it, doesn't communicate unless you reach out again and again, requests a meeting with you then pacifies you during that meeting and never follows through then this is EXACTLY the company you want. If I could give negative stats I would. Terrible experience. Terrible customer service. Zero communication skills. Zero value for long standing customers. Would not recommend.
