Our Team

MARCUS HOONE

Owner, Sole Field Technician

Bachelor of Science in Agronomy from Purdue University

and over 25 years of experience in the industry. 

 

Marcus started out working for his father, Joe Hoone who founded Grass Roots in 1983.  Joe instilled the work ethic and dedication to the principal of taking care of each customer as he would want to be taken care of.  Marcus went on to study at Purdue University with the goal of eventually taking over the reigns of the family business.  That succession happened in 2008 and Grass Roots has maintained its supurb level of customer service ever since!

In his spare time, Marcus enjoys family camping trips, traveling with his wife, any and all activities with his kids, as well as hunting and fishing. He is also an avid racing fan, particularly sprint cars. Grass Roots has the pleasure of sponsoring Hopkins Racing and driver AJ Hopkins starting in 2017.
