Meet Jamie, Josh, & Chris, Greenleaf Lawn

Growing Together: The Story Behind Family-Owned, Deep-Rooted Greenleaf Lawn

Jamie Nix, Owner

Jamie Nix, Josh Mathias, and Chris Spears may come from different paths, but their journeys all led to the same place: building Greenleaf Lawn into one of the area’s most trusted lawn care companies. Today, the trio blends expertise, passion, and community spirit to serve homeowners across Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks, and the surrounding area.
Family is at the heart of Greenleaf. Jamie and his wife, Ashley, are raising two energetic boys, Parker and Jace, who already enjoy hanging out at the shop and can identify different weeds by sight. Josh and his wife, Caroline, live on a ranch with their children, Kyler and Brynn, surrounded by a menagerie of exotic animals ranging from giraffes to otters. Chris and his wife, Michelle, stay busy with their children, Lyla and Fletcher, while their spirited dog Koda proudly takes on the role of “unofficial mascot.”
Each of the owners began their career paths young. Jamie launched his first lawn care business in high school with just a handful of customers, using the income to help pay his way through college. Josh started mowing lawns as a kid to cover sports and gas money, and soon demand was so strong he decided to build a career out of it. For Chris, landscaping was practically in his blood—his parents owned a nursery, and he worked alongside them through his school years before exploring other careers and ultimately returning to his true calling.
By 2005, it was clear that joining forces was the natural next step. Longtime friends with a shared vision, Jamie, Josh, and Chris combined their skills, experience, and passion. Greenleaf Lawn was born with a simple mission: to solve “Ugly Lawn Syndrome” and restore pride in outdoor spaces for busy families and homeowners.
The team understands that lawn struggles go beyond just weeds and brown patches. From curb appeal challenges and time shortages to irrigation issues and DIY frustrations, Greenleaf tackles every problem with a customized approach. Their goal is simple but powerful: deliver lush, green, and worry-free lawns so customers can enjoy their outdoor spaces without the hassle.
What sets Greenleaf apart is its community connection. As a family-owned company, they don’t just serve customers; they serve neighbors. Their technicians are trained, responsive, and attentive, offering tailored recommendations while going the extra mile to make sure every lawn looks its best.
Giving back is a cornerstone of the Greenleaf philosophy. The company supports local schools, churches, and events while creating opportunities for students interested in lawn care careers. Chris, for instance, mentors youth through soccer programs and regularly speaks to Jenks students, while the team proudly sponsors community events like the Jenks Dub Week Golf Tournament.
Greenleaf is more than a business. It’s a relationship-driven team committed to quality, trust, and care. Even behind the scenes, their office staff plays a crucial role, ensuring customers feel supported from the first call to the final follow-up. Together, they’ve built a company rooted in family values, local pride, and a commitment to keeping neighborhoods beautiful.
