Relationship Takes Root – 鶹ýӳ Celebrated with Corporate Partner of the Year Award
In late 2024, the celebrated 鶹ýӳ’s contributions to the garden by awarding the team the Corporate Partner of the Year Award.
The annual award celebrates 鶹ýӳ’s multifaceted relationship with the garden that dates to 2021 when 鶹ýӳ was selected as the general contractor to build the one-of-a-kind Carol & Bruce Bell Children’s Garden. In the years since, 鶹ýӳ employees have donated volunteer time annually to perform horticultural projects, from weeding to planting, and 鶹ýӳ has committed to being a corporate garden sponsor through the 2027-2028 season. Tony Meeuwsen, director of business development, additionally obtained a donation of security lighting from Sunbelt, a subcontractor, on behalf of the garden.
“The garden’s WPS Garden of Lights and concert series are highly-attended events, and safety is critical,” said Tony. “We’re proud to play a part in ensuring a safe environment so garden guests can enjoy these events.”
Through efforts like these, the partnership with the garden has grown beyond a professional relationship, demonstrating 鶹ýӳ’s belief in the power of community, said Jonathan Ballmer, vice president and general manager.
“The work that the Green Bay Botanical Garden does in fulfilling its mission of delivering educational and recreational experiences in nature is truly amazing. We are proud to be a partner with them in using our superpower of construction and volunteerism to support them in their mission. Kudos to our team that helped expand their impact,” said Jonathan.
