In this episode, Joe sits down with Bill Carraway of The Turfgrass Group. 
Bill shares his unconventional path—breaking away from a family of doctors and lawyers to find his calling in the dirt. After being kicked out of his home at 17, he built his first landscaping empire from scratch using nothing but a lawnmower and a credit card to becoming the Vice President of Sales and Marketing at The Turfgrass Group, focusing on the development and licensing of high-performance proprietary cultivars.
From golf courses to turf farming across the globe, Bill dives into the evolution of the industry, the power of innovation, and what it really takes to build something that lasts.
