Organic Lawn Care
Growing a lawn organically focuses on the soil and testing is one of the essential tools for improving the health. The soil test results provide baseline information on soil pH, nutrient levels, organic matter content, recommendations for fertilizing and adjusting soil pH. Linchpin Turf Maintenance follows the science of lawn care.

🍃 *Compost Top Dressing:* Nourish your lawn with organic matter that enriches the soil and provides essential nutrients. Our compost top dressing service will enhance soil structure and support healthy grass growth.
🌾 *Overseeding:* Fill in bare patches, improve turf density, and enhance the overall appearance of your lawn with overseeding. Our premium grass seed varieties will help your lawn thrive and resist weeds and disease.
By using compost and compost tea as a natural fertilizer, you can improve soil health and promote strong root growth. Compost and compost tea are rich in organic matter and beneficial microorganisms that can help your lawn thrive without the need for harmful chemicals. Additionally, compost can help retain moisture in the soil, reducing the need for frequent watering.
Aeration and dethatching are also important components of organic lawn care. Aeration involves creating small holes in the soil to allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots of your grass. This process can improve soil compaction, alleviate water runoff, and promote healthy root growth. Dethatching, on the other hand, involves removing the build-up of dead grass and other organic material on the surface of your lawn. This can help improve airflow and reduce the risk of disease and pest infestations.
Lastly, overseeding can help your lawn maintain a thick and healthy appearance. By adding new grass seed to your lawn, you can fill in thin or bare spots and improve overall grass density. This can help prevent weeds from taking over your lawn and promote a lush, green appearance. Overall, organic lawn care using compost, compost tea, aeration, dethatching, and overseeding can provide numerous benefits for your lawn and the environment. By promoting healthy soil and grass growth without the use of harmful chemicals, you can enjoy a beautiful and sustainable lawn for years to come.
Core Aeration
Utilizing a core aeration machine to pull plugs out of the lawn to allow proper airflow, water, and sunlight to the root system. Lawn Aeration is one of the most important things you can do to get and keep a healthy lawn.
Core aeration brings air down to the root zone and releases trapped gases. The length of the plug can be up to 3″ long, depending upon your soil conditions.
The plugs left on your lawn will eventually break down and feed microorganisms that help reduce thatch production. Each one of these little plugs represents a hole left in your lawn.
This hole actually acts as a reservoir, holding water and therefore cutting your watering costs. In addition, each hole becomes an individual germinating chamber when aeration is combined with overseeding.
Top Dressing With Compost
A healthier lawn comes with healthier soil, and there is no better way to improve soil health than by adding compost. Compost contains the primary nutrients—nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium—and an array of micronutrients to naturally feed a lawn.
We top dress with high-quality compost which is sourced locally.
Topdressing a lawn with compost adds organic matter to the soil, which improves the soil's health and several beneficial.
microorganisms that turn organic fertilizer and minerals in the soil into plant-available nutrients that can be taken up by roots.
Applying compost and seeds at the same time will improve germination, moisture retention and in turn provide a healthy lawn.
