If you\u2019re interested in having a vibrant, healthy lawn – but you\u2019re not interested in adding harsh and potentially harmful chemicals to the yard where the kids and fur babies play – you\u2019ll want to know about lawn aeration.<\/p>\n

Lawn aeration is an all-natural, chemical free way to boost grass growth in your yard. One of the things you need to know about your home\u2019s landscaping is that grass has roots, and those roots need to be able to stretch out through the soil. That\u2019s how they collect the moisture and nutrition the grass needs to be green, healthy, and strong.<\/p>\n

Sometimes the soil is not ideal for grass growth. In this part of Massachusetts, heavy clay soils are abundant. When these soils are put under pressure – such as when vehicles drive over it, or heavy foot traffic occurs over a sustained period of time – this soil becomes denser and more compacted. Grass growth is negatively impacted. It\u2019s not unusual to see areas of heavily compacted soil exhibiting bare patches of soil where grass won\u2019t grow at all. In some places, grass will grow in compacted soil, but it\u2019s clearly struggling.<\/p>\n

Lawn aeration loosens the soil where the grass\u2019s roots need to grow. This is achieved by the process of introducing thousands and thousands of holes into the surface of your lawn. Now you may say I do not want a lawn full of holes. I am not interested in Swiss Cheese landscaping. But you do not have to worry, because these holes are only the size of a pencil eraser – very small and not visible to the naked eye.<\/p>\n

But what these holes do for your lawn is almost magical. All of a sudden, the grass can stretch out its roots. All of a sudden, rainwater, oxygen, and any fertilizer you put on the lawn can make it directly to the roots in a fast way. Grass growth becomes both faster and stronger. No chemicals, all natural, completely safe for your family and pets – lawn aeration is a game changer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
