Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on the gifts that life has given us and to appreciate all that we have: both tangible, such as a safe and comfortable home, and intangible, such as love and laughter.

Thank you to our wonderful clients! Some of you have been with In Harmony for many years, and we are grateful for our long-term relationship. Thank you for trusting us with your landscapes, and thank you for being our partners in building a healthier planet one landscape at a time. We greatly appreciate you.

Here is an Iroquois prayer of thanksgiving. Posting this prayer has become an annual tradition. It expresses our connection to nature, which is a foundation of our company.

We return thanks to our mother, the earth, which sustains us.
We return thanks to the rivers and streams, which supply us with water.
We return thanks to all herbs, which furnish medicines for the cure of our diseases.
We return thanks to the moon and stars, which have given to us their light when the sun was gone.
We return thanks to the sun, that has looked upon the earth with a beneficent eye.
Lastly, we return thanks to the Great Spirit, in Whom is embodied all goodness, and Who directs all things for the good of Her children.
