The guiding principle of organic lawn care is to nourish the soil.

In this way, it differs fundamentally from chemical lawn care, which focuses on feeding the grass. Restoring and protecting soil health is crucial for the maintenance of a lush, naturally pest and disease resistant lawn.

A healthy soil is alive.

A diverse collection of organisms (many too small to see with the human eye) interact in complex and intricate ways. Together they break down organic matter, make nutrients available for plant uptake and aerate the soil. Soil aeration is important for water storage and air exchanges. Research shows that chemical fertilizers and pesticides degrade soil life and decrease the level of biological activity.
