Within the scope of this video of organic lawn maintenance at a residential home, we are overseeding the same to promote new growth, following that up with a top dressing with rich organic compost which will increase the organic matter by adding bacteria and fungi.

Benefits of organic lawn and turf maintenance

Many lawns are “addicted” to massive infusions of fertilizers and to frequent watering. These common practices lead to lawns that are not able to defend themselves against pests, as well as lawns with shallow roots that are vulnerable to drought. A well-planned organic lawn has healthy soil and deep-rooted healthy grass able to withstand most local conditions and robust enough to crowd out weeds and to shrug off the occasional pest.

Your lawn may be small, but the cumulative impact of pesticide, fertilizer, and water use on all the lawns across North America is huge. If you don’t use chemicals on your lawn, they can’t run off and hurt the wild lands or water sources near you, nor can they harm you, your family, or your neighbors.

Yours may be one small yard, but your efforts to take care of it in an organic fashion — by growing native plants and grasses, watering properly, shunning industrial pesticides and fertilizer — will make a difference.
