Douglas Burgess

Founder, Landscape Designer

A fascination with nature’s beauty as it transitions through seasons of color and change led Doug into taking a summertime job when he was a teenager at a local landscape company. From there, it has become a lifetime passion of pouring his wealth of knowledge and hard work into every job. “The interaction of nature and one’s well-being,” has become his philosophy in his established career.

After graduating high school, Doug threw himself into the landscaping world eager to learn. Dedicating 18 years working in the Philadelphia Flower Show and the Philadelphia Horticultural Society, creating a well-planned design that meticulously selects and places all elements in harmony and balance with the existing surroundings has helped to master the art and beauty of Landscape and Horticultural design.

Taking his 45+ years of experience and devotion, Doug and his wife, Mary, started Stoney Creek Landscape Management. What started out as a small company quickly grew into a successful family operating business. We are thankful to each and everyone that has helped us along this journey. And we give our promise to continue to work at the highest standards in the Landscape industry.
