Landscaper at Ms. Amanda Dyson
About me
Amanda Dyson, an Asheville suburbanite, enjoys donating to local causes, including Habitat for Humanity, United Way, and Santa Pal, which provides gifts for children in need. As a student at University of North Carolina at Asheville, Amanda Dyson studied horticulture and biology, which would lead to a lifelong interest in nature and animals. <br/><br/>Wife, mother, and Blue Ridge Mountain inhabitant are three ways to describe Amanda Dyson. Asheville is along the National Park Service's most popular scenic drive, the Blue Ridge Parkway, which draws 20 million hikers, bikers, drivers, and campers annually. The area inspired Charles Frazier, who wrote the novel Cold Mountain about on the area. Another work captures the lives of Cherokee Indians, which live on a reservation minutes away from Dyson's cabin. The wide expanse of the mountains gives her plenty of space for hiking and camping, two of her favorite activities. <br/><br/>Her neighboring artistic village delights Amanda Dyson. Asheville is home to several art galleries and live music venues, all set against the backdrop of Dyson's beloved Blue Ridge Mountains. In 1999, she founded the landscaping company Blue Ridge Farms, LLC. Success would soon follow Amanda Dyson; Asheville residents gave her several awards for her work on local restaurants and complexes.<br/><br/>A host of animals live with Amanda Dyson in Asheville, including cats, two English bulldogs, and llamas; in addition to the black bears and bobcats she often spots on her land. She would like to add a cotton-top tamarin, a miniature monkey, to her collection. Nature and animals have always interested Amanda Dyson; Asheville is only a skip away when she wants to indulge in high-quality cuisine, another passion of hers.
