Fall Lawn Care - Stop Raking and Start Mowing

 

Use autumn leaves as lake-friendly fertilizer for your lawn. Leaves release nutrients and organic matter as they break down.

 

Build your soil and feed your grass by mowing leaves into your lawn. Simply mow over twice without a collection bag. Chemical fertilizers can't do all that! Have too many leaves to mow into your lawn? Don't burn them or rake them into the lake!

 

You or your lawn care provider can gather the leaves in a tarp or bags and deliver to:

Undertoe Farm - Kewadin - 231.676.4813 OR Providence Organic Farm - Central Lake - 231.350.6420
