Business Spotlight: Peak Landscaping and Design


Owner Brenda De Leon
What I do: 
I own a landscaping & garden care company. We service Dutchess, Putnam, & Westchester Counties. 

How it began: 
I spent 10 years managing a high-end construction firm and learned everything from building a home to landscaping. At the same time, I freelanced as a consultant and helped small contractors start their own enterprises. Many flourished and are still in business today. I also became fascinated with the numerous health benefits that a well-designed landscape can bring to a homeowner. I love spending time in nature. It’s soothing, therapeutic and healthy, and with proper planning, anyone can have the same environment in their own backyard. Always having an entrepreneurial spirit, and my love for the outdoors, in 2007 I felt it was time. I started a company with a vision to focus on its employees because I strongly believe that happy employees are more productive on the field and lead to satisfied customers.

Our primary clientele:
Homeowners who want to make their backyard inviting by creating a new garden bed, bird sanctuary, butterfly garden, pond or water feature. We also have clients that love digging in the dirt, (DIYers) but need to jumpstart their garden and we can remove weeds and invasive plants and make it garden ready. If you have an outdated landscape and want to replace with sustainable plants, we can give your landscape a revamp. 

Most unique thing about us: 
What makes my business unique is my team. I love what we do and put in our all in every single project we come across. We utilize the satisfied customer strategy. We provide every single customer with respect, attentiveness, and personalized friendly care. I’ve always been fascinated with entrepreneurship and being personally involved in every aspect of a business. Personal contact with employees and customers leads to long-lasting relationships that create trust and friendships. It’s a belief that I feel strongly about today.

The Screen Queen Presents: GLOW

by Dana Muwwakkil Step into the ring with the Women from GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling) – the 1980s spandex and big hair world that women like actor Ruth Wilder (Alison Brie) land in when quality acting roles are scarce. Dreaming of landing a role that consists of more than telling powerful men that their wives are on line one, Ruth stumbles into GLOW and thinks this gig might be her big break.  The organization is brand new, headed by former B-list director and financed by a rich kid who wants to turn the women into stereotypes. Ruth is a natural front-runner who is passionate about her craft, but struggles to develop a compelling character and find her footing with the physical training. The show is based on the real women from GLOW, which became the very first television show with all female pro wrestlers in 1986. Netflix also has a documentary showing the real trailblazers some of the characters are loosely based on. These women were incredible enough to t...

The View From Here: Coming Into My Own

by Courtney Allen My journey started 36 years ago when I took my first breath outside of the womb. This journey, much like others, would take me through the ups, downs, heartaches, pains, wins, loses, and everything that no one can seem to get around in life. ​ Courtney Allen Every year marked a new journey for me, but there was something about part #35 (35 years old). By this time in my life, I had already had my heart broken to no end, graduated college, had my first child, lost my grandmother and a week later lost my mom to an all too aggressive stomach cancer. But 35? Oh - 35 was full of proud moments.  It started off extremely scary for me. I had major anxiety about turning 35 and felt that life had come so fast. I thought I was going through a mid-life crisis (funny right?). I needed a change, so I decided to dye my hair - but that wasn’t enough for me. I tried new dating apps, because I had been single for what seemed like forever (when...
