Family Owned Since 1983
Back in 1893, the Utz family first made its mark in the green industry when Chris’ grandfather, owned and maintained the Fairview Nursery in Longview, Texas - famed as one of the original growers of Tyler Roses. Growing up in East Texas, landscaping has been in Chris’ heritage for years, and even as a small child, he knew he would someday create a life for himself planning and beautifying the outdoors through landscaping.
His first and favorite memories of working in his parents’ nursery have turned into a Texas born and bred business of creating beautiful spaces outside for commercial and residential real estate. Today, Utz Environmental Services offers high-quality landscaping for some of the most renowned projects in Central Texas.
Giving Back to Our Community
As a passionate fan of baseball, Chris fondly remembers his time on the diamond as a kid and how the team sport shaped his trajectory into adulthood. Not only is he inspired by the game, but also the clean lines of fresh cut grass on the field. Through Utz Environmental Services, Chris and his team have been able to give back to the baseball community with RBI Austin.
RBI Austin is a Christian-based non-profit organization with the mission of engaging and developing inner-city youth and families athletically, academically and spiritually in underserved parts of Austin. The program provides mentorship and also makes baseball and softball affordable for families regardless of age, skill level and personal life.
Utz Environmental is incredibly proud to be a partner and supporter of RBI Austin. Through its donation of time and services, Utz helps maintain and mow the fields, ensuring teams have a well-kept and special place to play baseball and softball.
