GOOD ADVICE MAKES LAWN CARE SIMPLE

Feed regularly Regular feedings provide the nutrients your lawn needs to grow thick and strong, and withstand the stresses of weeds, heat and family activity.
Water Your lawn will begin to wilt when water is needed. As much as possible, take advantage of natures sprinkler and rely on the rain to water your lawn. Spot weed control Controlling pop-up weeds prevents big weed problems in the future. Repair bare spots Seed bare areas in your lawn to keep it thick and help prevent weeds from taking hold.
Lawn Care
Mow high and return clippings Mowing at a height best for your lawn allows the grass to grow thick and develop a deep root system. Grass clippings recycle plant nutrients back into the soil.
TWO TO FOUR FEEDINGS PROTECT AGAINST FUTURE PROBLEMS WHEN CAN I FEED?
Lawn Care
Early Spring Helps grass green-up after the winter. Feed around the first time you mow your grass.
Late Spring Prepares grass for summer stress by thickening the blades and building deep roots.
Summer Provides grass the nutrients it needs to thrive during the harsh summer months.
Early Fall Helps grass recover from the stresses of summer and store nutrients for the winter months.
DID YOU KNOW... Feeding regularly provides nutrients your lawn
needs to look its best and helps withstand the stresses of weeds, heat, drought & family activity.

Coarse fescue and quackgrass resemble crabgrass but typically grow much more upright, often exceeding the height of your grass. Crabgrass matures in early summer when temperatures warm up and will appear much flatter, laying closer to the ground than its spring imposters.

HoW OrgAnic MAtter IMproVes NAtiVe Soil
Soil aggregates create pores of many different sizes from large to very small. The large pores retain oxygen available for plant roots, while smaller pores hold water against gravity so plant roots can get to it. Clay soils will have improved drainage and air flow, and sandy soils will have better water holding capacity and nutrient availability.
CLAY SOIL
Adding organic matter to native soil triggers beneficial microbial activity that binds soil particles together to form tiny clumps called aggregates.
Amending with organic matter results in soil with a spectrum of large to small pores that have a better balance of water, air, and nutrients in the soil for plant growth.
45
SANDY SOIL
In clay soils, smaller soil particles are compact causing for poor air flow, water movement, and nutrient availability. In sandy soils, larger soil particles are loosely held resulting in quick movement of water, air, and nutrients through the soil.

Bird Food
Food is scarce and ice can coat berries when birds need to store energy and stay warm.
An extra food source helps resident birds recover from winter and migrant birds find energy for their journey north. Feed birds food with protein, calcium and other essential nutrients.
Seed, nut and berry quality declines in late summer when birds are raising nestlings and baby birds are learning to find food. Feed birds food with protein, high-energy nuts and essential nutrients.
Insects and berries rapidly decline as birds are replacing tattered feathers and storing energy for winter. Feed birds high-energy foods like nuts, seeds and fruits.
Feed birds high energy foods like suet, sunflower seeds and peanuts.
