Meet the owner

Founded in March 2023, Chloris Lawn Care sprouted from an enjoyment of the outdoors and maintaining my own lawn. I found something special in the roar of the mower engine starting up in the morning, the smell of freshly cut grass, the appearance of a freshly cut lawn, and knowing I helped out my parents by saving them time and making their day a little easier. It’s simple, satisfying, and honest work that I’ve loved from the start. After being approached by a neighbor and doing their lawn, I realized that I could turn this enjoyment into a real business, igniting the entrepreneur in me. Since then, I have slowly but surely begun to build a business around this hobby, one customer at a time.

My name is Nicholas Noxon, Owner & Operator of Chloris. I’m currently pursuing an Associate of science in General Studies at Tidewater Community College, with plans to transfer to Old Dominion University to obtain a bachelor's in Entrepreneurship and minor in environmental science. This small business helps me pay for school, stay connected to my community, and do work I genuinely enjoy (Minus the heat 😝)

While most lawn services simply use the owner’s name, I decided to do something different. I wanted a name that reflected not just who I am, but why I do this work. I chose Chloris, the name of the Greek goddess of greenery, spring, and renewal. It’s a name that speaks to fresh starts, growth, and the natural beauty of a well-kept yard. The name Chloris also represents something bigger: a sustainable future. While many people associate lawn care with loud, gas-powered equipment, I believe and know that lawn care can be clean, quiet, and environmentally responsible. With the limited resources I have, I’ve already begun incorporating electric tools and season after season, as the business grows, I’ll continue working toward my goal of zero emissions with 100% electric services, giving those I serve peace of mind that their lawn is being cared for with respect for both their space and the planet.

Chloris is more than just a business, it’s how I support my education, serve my neighbors, and build connections. Whether you want to support a student-owned business with heart and purpose or simply need dependable, quality lawn care, you’re in the right place.
