TRANSITIONING YOUR LAWN FROM CHEMICALS …. TO ORGANIC

Why Organic?

Cultivating and developing healthy soil may seem like a challenging endeavor, but it can be accomplished if you work at it over time. Organic lawn care products are equipped to give your lawn the boost it needs to be lush and environmentally safe. 

The main advantage of organic lawn care stems from the fact that by feeding the soil microbes, you in turn feed the plants. It is only through the actions of soil microbes that the nutrients in the soil are liberated and available for use by the plants. This is a natural, self-sustaining system that is designed to provide a safe and healthy environment.

Steps of the Organic Lawn Care Program:

• Fertilizer
• Aerating
• Overseeding
• Topdressing
• Compost Tear

Fertilizing:

• Helps to produce long lasting improvements in color, growth and healthy conditions
• Provides food to the soil biology
• Safe to handle and apply
• Poses no environmental hazard

Aerating:

• Tines are forced into the ground to loosen and shatter the soil
• Allows compost, fertilizer, air and water to penetrate soil
• Increases seed germination through better seed to soil contact
• Reduces thatch
• Creates a softer and more forgiving surface, which can reduce injuries

Overseeding:

Even with the best care available, lawns and athletic fields thin out and lose color. Over time, grass like any other living thing, will eventually die. Overseeding will thicken a lawn and crowd out weeds. It will introduce the newest, more hardy varieties to your lawn to make it less susceptible to drought, disease and insects.

Topdressing:

Topdressing with compost furnishes beneficial micro-organisms and nutrients that are safe for the environment. Compost adds vital organic matter to your lawn and increases your lawns capacity to hold water.  The Lawn Works has partnered with White Oak Farm Premium Organics, the supplier of “Purple Cow” Organics Activated Compost with Microlife.  This scientifically formulated, tested and certified premium compost delivers a full range of benefits, along with metabolic building blocks to enrich and enliven your soils food web. Selected foodstocks, smaller screen size and additional curing, produce a superior product for the sports field manager.
