Financial Benefits…
Lawn care provides significant financial benefits to the economy
as last year homeowners spent an estimated $11.6 billion dollars on
lawn care.
Realtors report a return on investment of 20% on landscape and lawn
care purchases
Environmental Benefits…
Oxygen production-a 50’X50’ lawn produces enough oxygen for a family
of four.
Cooling Effect-Eight healthy front lawns have the cooling effect of
70 tons of air conditioning-enough for 16 average homes.
Pollution Control-Dust and smoke particles from the atmosphere are
trapped by turf. Grass also converts carbon dioxide to oxygen.
Water Quality-Dense, healthy grass slows down and filters runoff,
removing contaminant and trapping soil.
