Our History
Since 1985, Santa Rita Landscaping has been helping Arizona communities create and maintain outdoor environments. Founded in Tucson, the company built its reputation on quality workmanship, responsive service, and long-term client relationships. Over the decades, Santa Rita expanded its capabilities to include landscape management, irrigation management, arbor care, landscape construction, design, and enhancement services, becoming a trusted partner for HOAs, commercial properties, municipalities, institutions, homebuilders, and homeowners throughout Southern Arizona.
As the company continued to grow, Santa Rita expanded into the Phoenix market in 2021, bringing its proven approach to landscape management and client service to communities across Central Arizona. In 2022, Santa Rita merged with Four Peaks Landscape Management, combining the strengths of two respected Arizona landscape companies to better serve clients throughout the state. The following year, Santa Rita joined the HeartLand family of companies, gaining access to additional resources, expertise, and opportunities while continuing to operate with the local leadership, relationships, and commitment to service that have defined the company for nearly 40 years.
Today, Santa Rita Landscaping proudly serves clients across Arizona, combining deep local roots with the strength of a national network. While much has changed since 1985, our focus remains the same: building lasting relationships, investing in our people, and delivering landscape solutions that create value for the communities we serve.
