Send us a text

On this heartfelt episode of The Plant Movement Podcast, we sit down with Saul Belmontes, the owner of Belmontscapes, a local lawn maintenance and landscaping company in South Florida. Saul’s story is one of faith, sacrifice, and resilience, a journey that began in his father’s nursery and grew into a thriving landscaping business built with determination and heart.
Saul opens up about his second-generation Mexican American roots, growing up working alongside his family, and how life’s unexpected challenges including losing his plumbing job during Hurricane Irma pushed him to lean on prayer, hard work, and sacrifice to build his dream. Today, Belmontscapes proudly serves Miami-Dade and the Keys, maintaining over 60 residential and commercial clients.

This episode dives deep into:
- Saul’s powerful testimony of overcoming financial hardships and setbacks.
- The realities of immigration and labor challenges in the Green Industry.
- Why community, collaboration, and faith are more important now than ever.
- The future of landscaping, rising labor costs, and how professionals must adapt to thrive.

Saul’s journey is a reminder that success is never linear—behind the polished lawns and social media highlights lies a story of grit, persistence, and belief in God’s plan. His honesty about the struggles of hiring, labor shortages, and industry changes will resonate with every listener who’s been tested but refuses to give up.

Tune in to hear Saul’s story, the lessons he’s learned, and his message to landscapers: “Sacrifice now, so the harvest can come later.”
