The
Association of Professional Landscape Designers®
(APLD) was founded in 1989 as an international
organization dedicated to promoting the highest standards for
the landscape design profession. The Midwest Chapter formed
in 2004 to represent APLD members who seek to build a regional
coalition of designers, contractors and artists. This
chapter's goal is to provide additional networking
opportunities, a forum for discussion and to offer high quality
educational opportunities not currently available through
other Midwestern organizations.If you're here looking to find some great landscaping talent, you are in the right place.
