Want to work hard and get to the top? Be like WNC native, Sam Lewis.

Sam came to Snow Creek with one thing on his mind – to work up the ladder. To put his experience and education of landscape design to use. Those of us who work with him, know that it worked!

We were able to sit down with Sam to ask him a few important questions on life and his general experience at Snow Creek Landscaping. His time, both in the field and in the office, has allowed him to see the greater picture of what is needed to help run a successful landscaping business. As a company, we are always glad to see our folks move up through the ranks and utilize their talents.

To get to know Sam just a little bit more, we sat down and asked him a few standard interview questions. To really let the community know who they are working with.

Snow Creek: “So Sam, here is the most important question – how do you spend your time off?”

Sam: “Playing golf, traveling, fishing, and attending sports events.”

SC: “Where are you originally from?”

Sam: “Born and raised in Candler, NC.”

SC: “Ahh, an Asheville native – rare these days! So what do you like about being in the landscaping industry?”

Sam: “Being able to see a project evolve into a clean and well maintained landscape. That something comes from an idea and is made into a place that people can enjoy and be one with nature.”

SC: “Serious question – If you were stranded on a desert island, what are three things you would bring with you?”

Sam: “Multi tool, water purifier, and 1000’ 550 para cord.”

SC: “And how did you end up on the island?”

Sam: “The fishing boat sank, so I floated to the island on raft”

SC: “Very straight forward! Alright, So how long have you been at Snow Creek Landscaping?

Sam: “ I started working in the summer of 2011 and became full time in May of 2014.”

SC: What is some advice you would give to someone – either in landscaping or just in life?

Sam:” Always be willing to work hard, get your hands dirty, and always look to see what you can be learning”

SC: Lastly, what is your favorite place in Western North Carolina?

Sam: “Anywhere out in the country, or just in the woods away from the hustle and bustle of every day life.

SC: “Agreed!”

And there you have it, folks. Sam Lewis of Snow Creek Landscaping. Want to meet more of him? Conveniently he can be found working with our crews on the production side of our company.
