Growing up in a lake house near Park Rapids, MN. Draydin and Redley Johnson spent weekends helping their dad, Blake, maintain the perfect lawn. While Draydin was focused on bigger career plans, Redley loved working outdoors and saw an opportunity.

One summer afternoon, Redley suggested, “What if we started a lawn care business? We’ve got the gear, and we know what we’re doing.”

Draydin was hesitant. “Lawn care? I had bigger plans.”

But Redley, full of energy, wasn’t ready to let go of the idea. “You’re great at handling business stuff—marketing, scheduling—and I’ll take care of the lawn work. We could make this work.”

After some thought, Draydin agreed, and they launched Johnson Bro’s Lawn care. Draydin took on the business side—setting up a website, creating ads, and handling customer relations—while Redley focused on mowing, trimming, and perfecting each lawn.

Their first job, an overgrown neighbor’s yard, turned into several referrals. As business picked up, Draydin streamlined operations, and Redley expanded their services to include landscaping and maintenance.

Now, Johnson Bro’s Lawn care is growing every day, and the brothers are proud of what they’ve built. It all started as a small idea, but together, they turned it into a local business. Their motto? “Brothers Who Mow Together, Grow Together!"
