In this episode of Cultivated, host Eric Behunin shares his family’s rich history spanning three generations in the horticultural industry. It begins with the innovations of his grandfather who mastered the art of preserving trees, including the still-standing specimens on Temple Square and at the Utah State Capitol. His father carried the legacy forward, adding lighting innovations to their repertoire and serving prominent Utah landmarks. Today, Eric Behunin is continuing their innovative journey by incorporating technology into horticulture. His firm, Horticultural Group, is pioneering the adoption of robotic technology for large scale landscape maintenance, thereby reducing labor costs and environmental impact. Through hands-on training and comprehensive strategies, the Horticultural Group is helping guide the industry through this significant transition towards automation.
