The University of Montana grounds staff manages over 50 acres of landscape, including over 2 million square feet of turf. The staff was recognized for their excellent work when they won the National Grand Award from the Professional Grounds Management Society in 1994 and again in 2002 when they received an honorable mention award.

In order to help maintain the lawn and the overall beauty of the campus, please use the sidewalks whenever possible.


 

 

 

 

                 

The University Grounds Management Staff adheres to an Integrated Pest Management System (IPM). This system utilizes methods that are the least invasive to the surrounding environment, when possible, to control pests. It includes the use of natural controls, maintaining good plant health, the use of plant varieties that are resistant to problem pests and the use of chemicals only when absolutely necessary to prevent irreparable damage to plants in the landscape.

 


Mission Statement

The mission of the Landscape and Grounds Maintenance Department of Facilities Services is to provide complete landscape services, arboricultural services, to facilitate external campus installations/renovations, and perform maintenance services, including snow removal, for all of The University of Montana landscape. Our department is responsible for providing a safe environment, while maintaining a high degree of aesthetic quality, and to provide for the functional use of the external campus environment for visitors, and the entire campus community.
