LAWN CARE
With our 6 step program will be at your property every 5-6 weeks supplying your lawn with the nutrients it needs throughout the growing season. Our organic Bio blends add beneficial soil microbes, bacteria and mycorrhizae enhancing the biology of your soil giving your lawn a healthy place to grow its roots. Whether you choose to go fully organic or with our hybrid-organic program you will get the great benefits of the same base blend. So what is the difference between organic and hybrid-organic? Our Hybrid organic program adds the following. Pre-emergent crabgrass control, surface insect control, grub control, and post-emergent weed control with every visit, selectively spraying only the areas in your lawn that have weeds, not your entire property.
Our 6 step program is all inclusive and you do not need to pay extra for grub or insect control.
LIMING SERVICES
Having soil with a low PH is commonplace here in the northeast. Having soils to low in PH will not allow the proper release of nutrients, keeping them bound up in the soil. A lime application will help to release those nutrients making them available to your lawn. This is an organic service that is done once per year.
TREE & SHRUB CARE
With our 6 step Tree & Shrub program will be at your property every 5-6 weeks providing the nutrients your plants needs throughout the year. Our organic Bio blends add beneficial soil microbes, bacteria and mycorrhizae enhancing the biology of your soil giving your plants balanced nutrition along with a reduction in disease stress. Included in our program is a fall anti-desiccant treatment to help plants retain water and hold in moisture throughout the cold winter months. Whether you choose to go fully organic or with our hybrid-organic program you will get the great benefits of the same base blend. So what is the difference between organic and hybrid-organic? Our Hybrid organic program adds timed insect control treatments which are all pollinator friendly. We feel this is a great addition to help control caterpillars, aphids, and the new spotted lantern fly along with lots of other insects that could do damage to your landscape. We also offer treatments options for large trees including treatments for Emerald Ash Borer, Hemlock Wooly Adelgid, as well as treatments for various other tree damaging insects.
FLEA & TICK CONTROL
We are proud to offer a 100% organic flea & tick spray that works with no chemicals and will not harm people, pets, beneficial insects such as bees or the environment. We can spray your lawn, beds, woods even your entire property to give you protection against these disease carrying insects. Let your family and pets enjoy their yard while keeping the pest out. We offer this treatment in 3 different programs. We offer a 6 step spray program, 3 step spray program or you can have us do a onetime spray for your party or get together.
MOSQUITO CONTROL
We offer hybrid-organic programs as well as 100% fully organic programs. Both programs will kill insects on contact and provide residual repellent that last for weeks. While servicing your property we will scout your property for areas of concern that may be contributing to beneficial mosquito habitats and breeding grounds.
AERATE / OVERSEED
Aeration should be a key part of your lawn maintenance program. Here is why, in our area where we have lots of clay soils compaction is inevitable this along with thatch build up can keep your lawn from growing at its best. Compaction and thatch can affect your lawns growing environment by not letting air, nutrients and water to penetrate the soil. Aeration allows for translocation of water, air and nutrients to get to the soil root zone where they are needed. Aerating is done with a hollow core tine machine that penetrates the soil and removes plugs, depositing them back onto your lawn to be broken down and recomposed back into your lawn. This is also a great time to over seed your lawn as the seed can fall in the voids left where the plugs were removed to facilitating the germination process. Aerating is essential part of your lawn that should be done every year.
WEED CONTROL
Pulling weeds can be one of the most time consuming jobs when it comes to keeping a nice clean appearance to your landscape. We offer Organic and non-organic programs to control the weed populations in your beds and landscape. We are aware of all the bad news surrounding the use of round-up and glyphosate products and the harm that they can cause. So it’s simple we do not use them. We offer preventative weed control programs as well as post emergent programs.
VITICULTURE
LAKE / POND MANAGEMENT

We will identify your needs and formulate a comprehensive plan to achieve your goals and provide solutions for your water quality issues. Contact us for an on-site evaluation.

Although we do use some chemicals in our hybrid programs they are applied at low rates and only when and where they are needed.
