Our Story
Our story starts back in 1989 when our late grandfather, Joe Villemarette, aka Patio Joe, opened Patio Garden Ponds, the state’s first pond retail store. In 2003, the family retired from the brick and mortar retail store. Now, we serve the OKC metro area as the city’s premier pond contractor, Oklahoma Ponds.
Today, Jay Villemarette Jr. leads Oklahoma Ponds. He began his water gardening and koi career at just 15 years old when Patio Joe gave him his first job working in the nursery and helping customers with their pond questions. The knowledge and experience Jay received as a teenager working with his grandfather was the beginning of a lifelong obsession with garden ponds and koi care
What makes us the best
The pond industry is ever-changing. Jay makes sure that he and his team are always at the forefront of education and the latest pond techniques. As a Certified Aquascape Contractor, the Oklahoma Ponds’ team spends countless hours perfecting our craft and promoting the pond industry. Our motto is Ponds Done Right, Customers Served Right! Jay’s passion for beautiful and healthy ponds shines through the exceptional work that he and his team do.
The work we do is inspired by nature and guaranteed by our experience in the field. From the initial design to the final details, Jay and his management team oversee every project.
