ABOUT WILD RIDGE LAWN & LANDSCAPE Wild Ridge Lawn & Landscape is a leading commercial landscaping company based in Indianapolis, Indiana, dedicated to providing top-quality lawn care, landscape maintenance, design, and snow and ice management services to commercial properties across the region. Founded by Joe and Krista Wildridge on a shared passion for doing things the right way, the company has grown into a trusted partner for some of the area's top organizations, delivering exceptional service, attention to detail, and genuine care on every property they manage.
