Inspired by the game, built for life.
CRAFTING PLACES, SHAPING CULTURE.
The Green Scene connects the craft of building and development with a close knit culture while acknowledging the parallels with the spirit of golf and community life. We cover what it takes to be successful in a world where change is happening so rapidly. While we drill down on the practical systems- budgets, schedules, vendor partnerships and more - our focus is connecting it all to a bigger picture of success. In addition, we talk about the pieces and parts that are needed to build great communities by using or own brands. What types of things are done to make an incredible experience and how teams behave when no one’s watching. Expect candid conversations with executives, decision makers, builders, golf industry leaders and experienced professionals who have endured success. Let’s talk about where people belong, how neighbors become friends, and why teams perform under pressure. Because great companies, neighborhoods and clubs aren’t just built or happen by accident—they’re cultivated. If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, builder, golf enthusiast, or doer who wants to lead well and be humble about it, this is your playbook.
Proven pathways to creating communities with purpose.
Lessons in leadership, integrity, and keeping your team on course
driving it home
Hands-on wisdom for every phase of the build.

Meet Your Host,
MATT GREEN
The voice behind the green scene, bringing you AUTHENTIC CONTENT every MONTH
Matt is a South Carolina builder and entrepreneur with a knack for turning plans into places people love. At Front Light (custom luxury homes) and Lanthorne (semi-custom homes), he focuses on defined process, practical product choices, and leading teams that deliver sustainable results. He’s also energized by where the industry is heading—embracing new building systems, digital collaboration, and tech that makes building and development more productive to both the builder, developer and customer. On the podcast, Matt brings that no-nonsense mindset to conversations with other executives, owners, builders, trade partners, and innovators, with a special lens at times on golf-community living and how that applies to business and life. Expect straight talk and advice, stories, and usable materials, plus leadership habits you can put to work. If you’re someone leveling up, a leader shaping culture, or a course-side homeowner who loves how things come together, you’re in the right place.
Incredible minds, thought leaders, and storytellers join us each episode.
