In 1986 while attending George Mason University, MowCow founder, Richard Linsday, started Rick’s Mowing Service from his campus dorm room. Having few resources available to purchase lawn equipment, his friend let him extract broken lawnmowers from the local landfill, from which he cobbled together his first grass cutting machine. After talking to nearby neighbors about their lawn needs, he sharpened the blades, tuned the engine and hired hallmates from his dorm to provide dependable, weekly lawn service.
As clients requested more lawn and landscape services so they could spend more time with their friends and family, the company grew. We changed company name, but never lost sight of our original goal, which was to provide “udderly dependable” service to our neighbors. Today, MowCow is located only a few miles from the university, still locally owned and operated, dedicated to providing healthy lawns and landscapes for families to enjoy.
Richard is married to Cindy, an Environmental Scientist teaching at Mason, who trains our staff in pollinator and Bay friendly practices. She serves as an advisor to the Virginia Turfgrass Council’s Environmental Institute and manages meaningful watershed education programs reaching 1000s of youth in NoVA. MowCow is a proud founder of the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay’s Businesses for the Bay.
