Grow healthy lawns.
Protect lakes, rivers & streams.
Natural lawn care uses an approach that works with nature to grow a healthy landscape and protect water resources. It doesn’t mean you have to get rid of all your grass or dedicate your life to tending your lawn. It depends on a simple principle: that a healthy lawn will be able to resist most weeds, disease, and insects.
Why Natural Lawn Care?March Lawn Tips
- Spring clean your yard! Clean up winter debris and properly dispose of litter.
- Get your lawnmower ready by completing maintenance tasks.
- Hiring a lawn care professional this spring? Ask questions to ensure landscaping practices protect water quality.
