PURPOSE

Spruce Creek Landscaping was started in 2019 by Chad Aiken. Chad has been in the landscaping industry since he was 16. He worked 12 seasons on the lower cape for Blue Rose Gardens with his mentor Victoria Pecorarro, a master gardener responsible for designing and creating some of the most renowned lower cape gardens. Chad Aiken attended the University of New Hampshire, where he studied small business entrepreneurship and received a Communication BAC.

After moving to the NH seacoast, he quickly found himself once again immersed in the landscape industry. This time around, he focused his attention on hardscape and landscape construction, where he developed his expertise.

Bailey brings a diversity of experience to the Spruce Creek Landscaping team.  Having spent his high school summers in the landscape construction industry, he knew he had an affinity for working and building outdoors.  Looking for new adventures, he attended University of New Hampshire, where he obtained a dual B.A. in Sociology and Justice Studies.  Following college, Bailey received his J.D. from Boston University School of Law and has since practiced in various legal disciplines.  

After many years at the desk, Bailey found himself happily back on the tools outdoors where he feels most at home.  You can find Bailey rolling in the dirt or brushing himself off in the office managing SCL operations or planning and designing your next project.

Based in southern Maine, Molly has worked as a gardener on the seacoast for 15 years. Her love of gardening and all things plants was inevitable, having been raised by a mother with an exceptionally green thumb. Working in her own garden is her therapy, reevaluating plant combinations and shifting things that aren’t working. There’s always something that can be improved. And that’s why Molly loves gardening, because it’s never finished, always evolving.

Molly's experience in the gardening world was solidified by having had the opportunity to work under some very talented gardeners before branching off on her own - helping other people learn about the plants in their gardens and maximizing their enjoyment of their space year-round. Whether it’s by providing a customized maintenance plan or consulting clients on what plants will work best in their yard - Molly brings the expertise.
