What Our Customers Say
"I struggled with a dying lawn for 12 years. Fed up with lawn service fees, my son recommended this site ... When the package arrived I followed all the instructions. I chose a small experimental to border the main lawn area. Three years later... it's the best part of the yard. We continue to expand the meadow each year. My son will not let me forget it was his idea!"

The root of the problem
Most of the grass species grown in America don't actually come from America. They're all from Europe or Asia, and they're simply not well adapted to North American soils and climates. That's why they need so much water, fertilizer, and pesticide just to stay alive and looking healthy.
If you could look beneath the soil, you'd be able to see the difference: natives grow deeper roots, and this allows them to better withstand drought without watering and thrive without fertilizer.
Our secret sauce: biodiversity
We tend to associate expanses of crisply mown green lawn with high status and vibrancy, but the sad truth is that non-native lawns are ecological deserts. They provide nothing for local birds, bees, butterflies, or the other members of a healthy ecosystem.
​
This lack of diversity makes turf grass highly vulnerable to pests like grubs, which happily much away at their roots, causing us to reach for the poison.
​
Wild Lawns are different. Their inherent diversity is naturally resilient to pest and disease damage, freeing you from ever needing to use poisons or fertilizers.
