It’s all in the family. If the name is Broccolo, they are related somehow.
The Broccolo name and our reputation have been critical to our successes.
Here’s some fun facts.
-Broccolo Tree and Lawn Care was founded in 1990 by Laurie (Ver’Schneider) Broccolo. Husband, Al Broccolo left his mechanical engineering and process control career to join the landscape business full-time in the mid-nineties.
-Born in 1992, nephew, Gino Broccolo, named his branding and marketing company, We are Ninety-two. You can read about him in the Rochester Business Journal. Last month both companies were highlighted in the same issue, unbeknownst to each other.

The fun part of family business is that we all work together in completely separate industries
