The Short Version
Alexa won a complete yard makeover from Josh at J.C. Landscaping MD in our free giveaway for anyone whose yard was in rough shape. The prize covered a full property cleanup, a professional lawn cut, fresh mulch and clean edging plus an OWL Movement T-shirt. We announced her as the winner on June 18, 2026.
The Whole Story
Who Won the Free Yard Makeover from J.C. Landscaping MD?
The winner was Alexa from Westminster, and we announced her on Facebook and Instagram on June 18. She has been working through some challenges lately and has not been able to keep up with her yard the way she would like.
We were thrilled that Josh could take this one off her plate! Her prize was a complete yard makeover from Josh at J.C. Landscaping MD plus an OWL Movement T-shirt.
Who Is J.C. Landscaping MD?
J.C. Landscaping MD is a landscaping business out of Taneytown here in Carroll County. Ryan, who started The OWL Movement, already knew Josh, so he gave him a call and asked, and Josh put up this whole makeover for free. The prize covered a full property cleanup, a professional lawn cut, fresh mulch and clean edging.
If your own yard has gotten away from you, reach out to J.C. Landscaping MD and see what Josh can do with it.
Who Was the J.C. Landscaping MD Giveaway For?
It was for anyone whose yard was in rough shape. From the very first post we said we were searching for the yard that needed it most. We even told everyone that the worse your yard looks, the better your shot.
We made sure everyone knew who was behind it in our countdown post.
“This is all on Josh at J.C. Landscaping MD, a local business choosing to transform a neighbor’s yard for free. That kind of generosity is the whole reason this movement exists.”
