Sustainable Lawn Care

Sustainable lawn care is the practice of maintaining lawns in an environmentally friendly way, using methods that conserve water, reduce chemical use, and promote healthy soil and grass growth. This technique involves practices such as mowing at the right height to encourage deep roots, using organic fertilizers, employing integrated pest management (IPM) to reduce pesticide use, and watering efficiently. Sustainable lawn care also includes overseeding with drought-tolerant grass varieties and incorporating native plants or reducing lawn areas to promote biodiversity. Proper sustainable lawn care ensures that lawns are not only attractive but also resilient, requiring less water and chemical inputs while supporting the surrounding ecosystem.
