Having a green, healthy, and lush lawn is easier than most people think. That’s why I started this lawn care blog so I can share my knowledge of all things lawn care. From Lawn Mower and Equipment reviews, to sod and lawn care tips, to year-round care. I’ve written The Perfect Lawn in eBook format which is a great guide to have so you can reference it whenever needed. Feel free to signup to my Perfect Lawn Newsletter and I’ll send you this PDF for free.
