Hatcher Landscape Partners acquires GreenView Partners

Hatcher Landscape Partners is a newly formed commercial landscape platform that's backed by Walnut Grove Capital Partners. HLP unites Michael Hatcher & Associates and GreenView Partners.

The strategic acquisition of GreenView Partners, a landscape services firm headquartered in Raleigh, now positions HLP to continue to expand across the Southeastern United States.

“This partnership is a transformational moment for our 600 team members,” says Russ Sneed, CEO of HLP. “What makes this acquisition unique is the alignment of culture between the two companies. We are integrating two high-performing, people-first teams into one unified platform with a shared vision for becoming the premier landscape service provider in the Southeast.”

GreenView Partners Founder and CEO Darrin Hockstra will now serve as chief operating officer of HLP. 

“We built GreenView on a foundation of service, relationships, and care for our people," Hockstra says. "Partnering with Michael Hatcher & Associates allows us to expand those values with new capabilities, broader resources, and deeper support for our customers and team members.”

“This acquisition marks an important step in HLP’s growth strategy and reflects the type of investment we champion at Walnut Grove – partnering with exceptional leaders who put people and culture at the center of their success,” says A Thompson, managing partner of Walnut Grove. “By acquiring GreenView, HLP is expanding its reach and capabilities while strengthening its position as the premier landscaping services provider in the Southeast. We are proud to support Russ, Darrin, and the team as they continue building a market-leading landscaping platform that creates lasting value for its employees, customers, and communities.”
