OUR TEAM
Luke Clouse
Owner
Before founding Meadowlark Landscape & Design Inc., company owner Luke Clouse studied graphic design, horticulture, and landscape design at Wichita Area Technical College. After gaining industry experience and developing several client relationships in the Wichita area, Luke decided to put his knowledge and business acumen to the test and launched Meadowlark Landscape & Design.
Recognizing early on in his career that quality customer service must be top-tier, Luke approaches each project as an opportunity to prove Meadowlark is the best landscaping and design company in the great city of Wichita. Luke feels that every client – no matter what their budget or size of the project – deserves five-star work. He accomplishes this through hiring the very best in the landscaping business and cultivating great relationships with both clients and vendors.
Luke has a cumulative total of 20 years of experience in the field that he uses on a daily basis to provide quality work and customer satisfaction. Even though Luke is the owner, he works hard right alongside his crew. Whether it’s pruning, mowing, irrigation, or creating beautiful landscapes – Luke takes a hands-on approach to ensure his client’s vision of the perfect landscape is being realized and they’re 100% satisfied.
Luke has been happily married to his beautiful wife, Crystal, for the last decade. Together they are the proud parents of three wonderful boys: Eli, Cale, and Corvin.
