How did you like the U of Maine Landscape design course? I went to NHTI here in NH for landscape design and it wasnt bad. They teach the old drafting method instead of Autocad. Just wondering your thoughts of their course.

As long as you get me a full day of work I will travel up there or for a big enough job.
PM me or give me a call on my cell (603)320-5054. I also have a 35hp tractor with a power rake if you don't wanna do a big one yourself and just want to sub it out, I have the capability to bring up the whole setup (seeder, tractor and harley rake) at once to make a full day's work.

Kingsbury,
I graduated from UMaine in Landscape Design. Are you talking about the full program, or just a course or two? We did all of our projects by hand, but I think they are incorporating VectorWorks into the program as a supplement. I actually prefer to hand draw, I think it gives a better "creative license" and helps visualize things much better than a CAD program. I now use DynaScape for designs, and hand drawing definitely helped me with tit.

If interested we could get in touch and chat. I could possible throw you some work with more decks or other side jobs, or possible work together as 2 small businesses to take on some larger propertys. Belknap Landscaping, CBH landscaping get all the larger accounts because there is no other companys to give competition.

Do you know a JM Carr Landscaping??
Also, Isnt Tasker a big guy up there to doing a lot of the estates??
