The Parker Story

Len and Bea Parker, Scott Parker’s grandparents, enter the landscape field by leasing greenhouses in Central New Jersey. Through their decades of innovation and dedication, the company grew into one of the largest plantscape firms in the country.

Steve Parker, Scott Parker’s father, joins the family business and finds great success in related ventures, such as greenhouse production, landscape services, and retail landscape sales. Shown below are Scott's parents winning the “White House Award for Landscape Excellence”, presented by Barbara Bush.

Owner of Parker Homescape, Scott Parker is born, and he spends much of his childhood learning about plants and trees from his father. Growing up, Scott and his sister quickly realize that they need to learn the names of plants if they want to be treated with ice cream!

Scott Parker graduates from Tulane University – A.B. Freeman School of Business with a Finance and Business Management degree.

Scott Parker continues to expand his knowledge of the horticultural field by working in his family’s business and by attending Rutgers University, where he studies Horticulture, Landscape Design, Landscape Construction, Turf Management, Outdoor Lighting, Hardscaping, and more.

With humble roots in Scott Parker’s truck, Parker Homescape, LLC is born.
