I'm Bern Bonifant, Owner of Blue Heron Services, and I can honestly say, "Healthy beautiful lawns are no longer a luxury. They are essential for the environment in which we live!"

I have an undergraduate degree from Washington and Lee University and a masters degree in Urban Planning from the University of Virginia. Over the years I have learned what works environmentally and what produces results. Combining the best products available with good service is my approach to business.



My business goal is twofold, to enhance the environment, and provide quality service. I have been in the lawn care business for 23 years, and I am good at what I do.


If you choose Blue Heron Services, I will partner with you to produce the results you like with complete confidence in the environmental impact.

"Quality service is our passion!" At Blue Heron we take pride in what we do and have the pictures to prove it. I believe customer satisfaction is achieved because we care about what you think. We are trained to know what is needed for the environment and we do what we say we will do.

I am passionate about creating healthy environments by blending chemical science and natural habitat. Let me make a positive mark both on the environment and for you!

I enjoy consulting as well. I have been a speaker and facilitator at National Green Industry events, Home Owner Associations and Garden Clubs. I enjoy teaching and find the more "hands on" a client is, the more they become as excited about the results to their property as I am.
