With the fall dig and planting season about to begin, we thought we'd take a moment to reintroduce ourselves, and our crew!
Marlee started working at iTrees.com in 2013 when she decided to jump into the growing family business, and since that time she has really run with it. Marlee is a true people person, and her passion for design has helped her catch on fast. In only four short years, Marlee has effectively taken over, running all day to day operations at iTrees.com including sales, scheduling, customer service, administration, and marketing! Marlee truly cares about her customers and is very knowledgeable about all types of trees. She can help with tree layout, design, and selection- and has truly become an expert! Her favorite part of the job is meeting with customers, and helping them beautify their yard. She loves trees- and is always excited when she is able to spread that love of trees to her customers! Marlee loves working at iTrees.com and helping to make the earth gorgeous, but even more, she loves owning and working in a family business. In her spare time, Marlee enjoys time with her husband and three children, and loves spending time outdoors!
Chris started iTrees.com in 2007, after graduating from the University of Illinois. Having grown up on the farm and with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, Chris decided to move back to his hometown, start his own business, and eventually take over the family farm. With his love of technology, trees, and agriculture- iTrees.com was born, and it took off from day one. The company was born from a simple idea- make it as convenient and simple as possible for homeowners to find an affordable, and diverse selection of trees! In 2012 Chris took over the family farm as well, becoming the fifth generation to own and operate Harford Farms, raising corn and soybeans. Marlee stepped up to the plate, and now Chris and Marlee work side by side running both businesses. In his spare time, Chris enjoys spending time with his wife and three children, working on the farm, spending time outdoors, and writing!
Kyle started with iTrees.com in 2013, and has since become the crew manager, and is in charge of all tree installations for customers. Kyle comes from a farm family and has a strong background in agriculture and hard work. Kyle is extremely personable, and loves talking with customers- he always goes out of his way to make sure customers get exactly what they want, and makes sure that he leaves their property looking better than it was when he arrived! Kyle has a strong work ethic, as well as a strong desire to make his customers happy. We are constantly receiving praise from our customers on his positive attitude and friendliness. Kyle is very knowledgeable about trees and enjoys the satisfaction of seeing the job before, and after, and seeing the impact that trees make on the landscape. In his spare time, Kyle enjoys spending time with his fiancee, daughter, and son, working on his family farm, and working on trucks in his shop!
