Our Story

In 1980 David Buchanan Sr. and his wife, Judy, bought the "40 acre farm" from Judy’s father, Charles Moore Sr. The Moore family had lived there since 1944. Our original office was a tenant house where Burns and Nell Baker raised their family. They lived in the home since the early forties even before Charles Moore Sr. purchased the farm. In the summer of 2005, David Buchanan and Lisa Carter became partners in Landscape Services Inc. a business that Lisa started in 1989. In 2006 David Sr., David Jr., and Lisa became partners and began planting what is now Lovers Lane Tree Farm.
