Fertilizer & Soil Health Programs

Cost-effective, evidence-based programs targeting specific lawn problems - from basic fertilizing to protocols for clay, shade or salt-damage.
We respond to most requests within 1 to 2 business hours.

Achieving a thick, resilient, and weed-free lawn in Ontario requires more than just throwing down seed and hoping for the best. Between our heavy, compacted clay soils and strict local regulations on traditional herbicides, the old "spray and pray" method of lawn care simply doesn't work anymore. Our fertilizer and soil health programs are engineered from the ground up to offer impressive results and a sustainable approach.

Lawn & Garden Fertilizer Programs

Our lawn and garden fertilizer programs make it easier to feed and enhance your lawn and gardens. We use evidence-based best practices that are reviewed and updated annual so our clients can trust they are receiving exceptional value with a focus on sustainability.

I was really impressed with the two staff who came to do the work, super pleasant, respectful AND knowledgeable, not just workers. They were able to advise on some lawn concerns... and understood what makes a good yard for family.
