Inside the company she champions continuous learning and personal growth for every team member.

Mark Royce

Mark Royce has led sales at Bayside Sod for many years. He came to sod from a career in law enforcement, and he brings the same discipline and sense of service to every customer conversation.

Mark’s guiding rule is simple: treat people the way you would want your own family treated. That rule has built lasting relationships with customers, and it reflects the values that guide the whole company.

Away from the farm, Mark spends his time outdoors with his young family, from soccer fields to camping trips.
