Four Generations of Landscaping on The Main Line

Haverford Gardens is rooted in more than a century of landscaping experience. Owner Joe McKelvey was born in Merion, graduated from Lower Merion High School and represents the fourth generation of a family whose landscaping tradition began in 1916. Today, Joe brings that heritage to Haverford Gardens, combining generations of knowledge with a highly personal approach to landscape design, installation and property care.
