Managing Large Lots

A popular tool to preserve our environment and open space is large lot municipal zoning. Homeowners can find themselves with five acres of turf and little time or know-how to care for it. Turf Field Days at Snyder Farm offer the answers. Programs emphasize best management techniques to maximize a lawn's beauty and environmental health. A healthy lawn needs fewer pesticides, fertilizer, and water. Workshops cover the gamut from buying the right mower, sowing the best seed, and proper care and feeding.
