Break Your Lawn's Addiction to Chemical Fertilizers, Pesticides, and Herbicides

Looking out our kitchen window one day, I watched our two children and dog playing on our lush, green

lawn. But suddenly a knot hit my stomach. My children and dog were rolling in grass, which was treated with dangerous chemicals. These chemicals do get absorbed through our skin. I saw our dog grooming itself and licking it's fur and paws.

Ever since that day, I dedicated myself to ridding our lawn with bags of chemicals and began my

company using only chemical-free fertilizers and biological pest and disease control. I haven't looked back. Just looking at the "Keep out of reach of children" labels on most pesticides and

herbicides is reason enough to switch to organic lawn fertilization. I’m committed to helping other

homeowners break their lawn's addiction to synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides.

The underlying philosophy behind organic lawn care is this: Healthy, chemical-free soil produces robust

lawns that can virtually take care of themselves in the long run. After years of being flooded with

chemicals to fend off grubs, eradicate weeds, and green up the turf, the natural capacity of the soil to

perform these tasks itself has ceased operation. Cut it off from the chemicals cold turkey, and you'll get

the natural process running again—naturally. Once the soil's healthy, you might never have to deal

with pesticides, herbicides, even fertilizers again.

So think about it as you watch your kids and pets frolic on the backyard lawn.
