INSTRUCTOR: JIM CARD
Jim Card spent 25 years serving the residential and commercial communities as a Landscape Services business owner. He knows all there is to understand about your lawn, plantings, soil, and sprinkler systems.
Lawn grass naturally goes dormant in the summer months , but with water and fertilizer, we nudge it into a green and growing presentation that will require varying degrees of attention. In early spring the lawn needs a balanced blend of fertilizer. Learn the blend Jim recommends along with mowing tips, and tips for checking the health of your lawn.
Plan on walking away with a wealth of information. AND, sign up for our Winter Lawn Maintenance class too.
