Landscape Supervisor & Landscape Architect

Dan Reeder – Landscape Supervisor & Landscape Architect

Dan Reeder has been actively maintaining, designing & creating landscapes for the last 30 years (& hopes for another 30…) Building off a childhood filled with camping & tree forts and a neighborhood snowblowing/lawncutting business in high school, he has followed his love & appreciation of art/nature/science into college studies & a professional career. After several summers working with various landscape outfits, Dan received his Bachelors of Landscape Architecture in 1986 from SUNY ESF. For the next 10 busy years he gained solid graphic, writing, design, construction & management skills, working his way up in Landscape Architecture firms (mainly EDR, PC in Syracuse & Sasaki Associates in Boston) to Project Manager & Associate. In 1989 Dan passed the comprehensive CLARB registration exam as a Landscape Architect.

1996 was a big transition year for Dan, going from intense office work to life as a graduate student & teaching assistant. He eventually received his Masters of Science in Landscape Architecture in 2003 from SUNY ESF, while also keeping busy raising a family & running his own business. Natural Systems Landscape Design & Build officially started in 1998 & continues today as his own consulting practice. Since 2003 Dan has enjoyed his indoor/outdoor careers teaching design as Adjunct Faculty in Landscape Architecture at SUNY ESF each semester, as well as completing design/build projects all through each Spring, Summer & Fall.

Spring of 2008 presented Dan with a growth opportunity he just couldn’t refuse by joining forces with Green Scapes. As a longtime Green Scapes client, Dan always appreciated the friendly knowledgeable atmosphere, high quality materials & free candy at the counter. Dan brings his artistic design talents & experience creating natural stone walls & walkways, along with his passion for sustainable ‘green’ design principles and opportunities for creating thoughtful, unique, naturalistic spaces for individuals, institutions and communities.
