On rethinking Grounds Care, especially after years of harmful chemicals.
"Lawn Treatment" is not
what it sounds like or appears to be; rather, it is a mix of toxic chemical
pesticides that damage our soil, air, water and health. The time has come to rid our land of the conventional, harmful,
archaic method in favor of a known SAFE
organic approach.
I have spent years learning about
transitioning lawns from chemicals to natural. Our lawns easily improve with better mowing practices but with just a few more, simple changes, the land
and lawns could do much much better. One of my suggestions, aerating compacted
areas and then fertilizing with a good organic fertilizer (I can recommend one
such!), each fall. Also, in the fall, over-seeding with a mix of local grass
seed, easily obtainable. Very simple. Right now, the
dandelions can be doused with a mix of vinegar and water and kept dead-headed
and mown down before the heads go to seed.
Please review these links (below), if you
would like to understand why transitioning to natural land care is so
important. And, affordable!
