Better Lawns and Gardens began in 2002 when David Munsey, Jr. launched a lawn maintenance business focused on quality work and strong relationships.

In 2011, his son, David Munsey III, joined the team, bringing turfgrass expertise and new ideas. Together, they've grown the company into a full-service outdoor living brand known throughout Little Rock.

Rooted in Arkansas soil, Better Lawns and Gardens is a multi-generational company built on hard work, creativity, and the belief that every outdoor space should feel like home.

Locally Owned and Family Operated

This business started with a father and a mower—and has grown into something much more. David Jr. and David III are not just a team—they’re family. And you’ll often find David’s own kids tagging along, helping out, or just watching how it’s done.

Whether it’s planting flowers or checking in on a build, this business has always been a family affair. That heart is what drives Better Lawns & Gardens to treat every customer like part of the family, too.

Meet the Family Behind the Business

With over two decades in business, Better Lawns and Gardens now offers a full suite of services:
Custom landscape and hardscape design
Outdoor lighting and structures
Pools, kitchens, and water features
Lawn and shrub treatments
Commercial and residential maintenance

Better Lawns and Gardens completed their first custom pool build, officially launching into the outdoor living space industry. From pools to patios, the business began transforming backyards into full-service outdoor experiences.


The business took a big step in branding with a professional logo and identity system designed by Matmon Internet in Little Rock.


David Munsey III officially joined the company, bringing with him a Bachelor of Science in Horticulture with an emphasis in Turfgrass Management. His background and vision expanded the company's offerings to include full-scale landscape design, fertilization programs, turfgrass disease treatment, and irrigation services.

David Munsey, Jr. founded Better Lawns and Gardens with a passion for quality lawn maintenance and personalized service. The focus at the time was simple: provide dependable lawn care to families in Little Rock.
