ArtisTree Employees Enjoying Their Yards More During COVID-19

Business

ArtisTree employees are enjoying their yards more these days, preferring outdoor family time over crowds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Survey findings surprised upper management, who assumed that most ArtisTree employees working 50-60 hours outside every week wouldn’t want to be anywhere near a blade of grass. But 60 percent of those surveyed said they were spending more time in their yards on a variety of projects ranging from general maintenance and landscape enhancements to vegetable gardening and hardscape installations. “ArtisTree employees were also asked what benefits they received from spending more of their free time outside,” said Vice President of Marketing Debra Morrow. “The three most popular answers were more quality family time, the satisfaction of having a healthier, nicer-looking yard, and less stress and anxiety caused by the pandemic.”
