Grounds Management

Leaders in Organic Solutions for Grounds & Schools Turf Management

Today’s school grounds are so much more than flower beds and grassy knolls. Good horticulture on a school campus is a significant recruiting tool and can elevate the status of any institution. Grounds & Schools Turf Management is a very complex proposition as it includes: grass covered commons, flower beds, landscape and sports fields. Carbon based fertility and Biological Soil Management not only can help with grass areas but all the landscapes, hanging pots and flower beds. By building a healthier soil you help the soil to hold water which helps with recovery of wear and tear areas across campus. Although Biological Soil Management is so much more than using “organics” in a school environment the value of marketing an organic based landscape has proven to be very helpful on many campuses. Using the concepts of Biological Soil Management, as outlined here, and the support of over 15,000 clients soil tests from Logan Labs we have been able to solve some of the most frustrating agronomic problems. In the process we have significantly reduced fertility and other inputs while building better soil drainage and a more suitable soil for the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms.
