For more than 50 years, WNC Landscaping has helped homeowners, HOAs, property managers, and businesses across Western North Carolina build and maintain landscapes that look great and hold up. Led by Charles Boyd, our work blends deep horticultural knowledge with practical, job-site experience—so projects are planned correctly, installed carefully, and maintained consistently.

A Lifetime of Dedication

Charles Boyd is the founder of WNC Landscaping and has spent a lifetime working with plants, soil, and water in the mountains of Western North Carolina. With Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Agriculture and Landscape Design from North Carolina State University, he brings a strong technical foundation to every job. His experience began on the family farm, where a commitment to quality work and a respect for native and region-appropriate plants became the cornerstone of the business.

Teaching Excellence

A Knowledge Sharer

For Charles, great landscaping starts with understanding how plants, grades, drainage, and irrigation work together. That mindset—teach first, then build—shows up in the way we plan projects, explain options, and make recommendations that fit the property and the long-term maintenance needs.

Empowering Future Generations

In addition to running WNC Landscaping, Charles has spent more than 30 years teaching agriculture and horticulture. That real-world teaching experience translates into clear communication, thoughtful project planning, and practical solutions—so customers feel confident about the work being done and the results they can expect.

How did WNC Landscaping begin?

WNC Landscaping began more than 50 years ago on the Boyd family farm in the mountains of Western North Carolina. What started as a nursery and a deep knowledge of plants grew into a full-service landscaping company serving homeowners and commercial properties across the region.

What sets WNC Landscaping apart?

Experience and fundamentals. Charles Boyd holds Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Agriculture and Landscape Design from NC State and has spent decades teaching agriculture and horticulture. That background shows up in the details—proper grading and drainage, smart plant selection for mountain conditions, solid installation, and clear communication throughout the job.

What is WNC Landscaping’s mission?

To create landscapes that look great, function well, and last—using practices and plant choices that fit Western North Carolina’s soils, slopes, rainfall, and seasons. We focus on quality installation and dependable maintenance for the long term.
