Ahmed Hassan | As
Seen on DIY Network’s “Yard Crashers”
At
the age of 10, Ahmed discovered his love of gardening
and the outdoors. To many children, mowing lawns,
trimming shrubs and stacking wood would be considered
mundane chores -- not to Ahmed. With each completed
task, he was moving closer to his purpose in life,
teaching others the importance of hard work and how to
co-exist with nature. Ahmed’s love of landscaping paved
the way to a successful career as one of todays most
sought after celebrity landscapers and green experts.
Since 2008, he and his team have surprised families with
customized residential landscapes and upgraded homes on
DIY Network’s “Yard Crashers.”
Following a series of hosting stints for numerous
DIY Network television shows including “The Dirt On…,”
“Green Me Up,” and “Blog Cabin,” the network created the
series to showcase Ahmed’s high energy,
motivational spirit and love for everything
green. Each
week, millions of viewers are charmed by his engaging
personality and unique style of education and
entertainment.
In September 2011, “The Nate Berkus Show” unveiled
Ahmed’s work as lead design consultant for Monica
“Warrior Mom” Jorge’s house. Earlier this year, he
co-hosted HGTV’s live coverage of the
2011 Tournament of
Roses Parade. He has served as guest contributor for
the “CBS Early Show” and NBC’s “Today Show.” He is a
guest columnist for several publications including the
new HGTV magazine.

Hassan Landscape Services (AHLS) LLC, a landscape

The 38-year old California native hails from San
Francisco’s East Bay Area.
He attributes his success to the support and
spiritual philosophy of his blended family. His
entrepreneurial parents taught him the value of
creating a business with the work you enjoy most. His
rural roots, mixed with inner-city upbringing, has given
Ahmed a unique ability to relate to people from all
walks of life. The connective thread through each stage
of his life remains Agriculture, Construction and
Landscaping.
“Creating beauty IN and FROM nature is what I do!” says
Ahmed. Ahmed and his family currently reside in
Sacramento, California.
