WisBusiness: The Podcast with Pete Layton, CEO and owner of Tallgrass Restoration

This week’s episode of “WisBusiness: The Podcast” is with Pete Layton, CEO and owner of Tallgrass Restoration, a Milton company that restores land to its natural state with native plants and animal species.

“When the earlier settlers came here they did a lot of planting in the wetlands because they could plow it up,” he said.

Nowadays, when businesses impact wetlands with a development, they are required to do some restoration to offset the damage done to the environment.

“What they’ve found is it’s much better to hire a firm like ours — that are professionals about it and do it on a large scale — and get their wetland credits from us,” he said.
