2021 In Review

1/3/2022

2021 was a whirlwind for us here at AWM Water Features and we finally got a chance to catch our breath this winter and look back upon what an amazing year it was. The West Michigan Home & Garden Show we normally participate in every year was canceled yet again due to COVID concerns. Since a large amount of jobs and leads come from the show we were worried about what effect it might have on our business. Luckily there was no shortage of work throughout the year. ​
    In Spring we cleaned over 150 ponds and waterfalls and Paul & Cole took a week long trip to Maryland to help out Atlantic Ponds, another CAC. Throughout the year AWM installed over a dozen new ponds and waterfalls. We also had a huge uptick in renovation work and wetland filter upgrades on existing ponds. Take a look at this pool to pond renovation project we did. Our maintenance department nearly doubled in size which kept Eric & Cole plenty busy.

    For the first time this year we hosted both a spring and fall Parade of Ponds event. We’re so grateful for our customers being willing to showcase the unique water features we’ve built. Another first for AWM this year was hosting the infamous Greg Wittstock “The Pond Guy”. Greg spent a sunny June day in West Michigan touring and vlogging 6 of our favorite projects to feature on his Youtube channel. Check out all the videos here.
The Pond Guy’s visit also inspired us to finally build our very own ecosystem pond at home office which we can display to clients, test out new products on, and provide a safe home for our koi and goldfish. Mike’s family loves their new pond and is enjoying living the aquascape lifestyle right off the backyard deck.
Two other notable accomplishments for AWM were in the publishing arena. Our Hobbit Hole project was featured in the new Hands of the Artist coffee table book by Aquascape and Mike had the honor of writing an article for Pond Trade Magazine about it as well.

We feel incredibly blessed to have such a great group of employees, customers, family, and friends that make up our community here. With the 2022 season about to start AWM is looking forward to another busy and rewarding year! ​
