About edko

EDKO is a vegetation management company built on one simple idea: when unwanted vegetation becomes a problem, there should be a smarter solution. Founded in 1961 by Max Edwards, EDKO helped shape modern herbicide application by innovating tools and techniques that are still used today. Max believed that customers should define the solution—not the other way around—and that philosophy remains at the heart of our company.

Today, led by Mike Vasko, EDKO delivers customized, cost-effective vegetation management services across a wide range of environments. From how we operate to how we bill, our approach is shaped by the needs of our clients. That dedication to service is why many of our partnerships span decades—and why we continue to be trusted to handle complex vegetation challenges with precision and care.
