Born and raised in Belgrade, Maine on a 100+ acre Maine registered tree farm, Joe has always enjoyed and appreciated nature and spending time outdoors. Currently Joe resides in Hermon, Maine with his wife Jessica, daughter and two English bulldogs.

There he enjoys water skiing, fishing and spending time with his family. Joe also enjoys canoeing and hiking and in colder snowy months snow shoeing, ice fishing and downhill skiing. His indoor orchid collection is a favorite hobby as well.

JLLandscape (Joe Ladd) has been serving my landscape needs for the past several years. He was initially recommended to me by a mutual friend to "rescue" a perennial garden area that was truly a disaster. He removed all old debris, designed and replanted appropriate flowers for beauty throughout the growing season as well as adding rock accents. The result was amazing --- like a picture from "Better Homes and Gardens Magazine." Joe has such an incredible vision for the space and at the same time incorporating the wishes of his customer. He is very knowledgeable, organized and dependable. Whether the project is a complete remake of the yard or regular maintenance, I would highly recommend JLLandscape.
