 o
can anyone recommend a good organic lawn service for SW Nassau?

I have a list of organic landscapers, most of whom mainly serve the wealthier parts of LI. There are very few who work in my area, and those I have contacted are not returning my phone calls. Can anyone here recommend anyone?

Thanks,
Ellen

RE: can anyone recommend a good organic lawn service for SW Nassa

Hi Ellen,

I live in Nassau County on the south shore as well and have been using Mike's Organic Landscaping for the past couple of months. They are doing a satisfactory job with our weekly maintenance needs at this point, although they are slightly more expensive than our previous landscaper was.

From the literature the owner of the company gave me at our first meeting, he seems quite knowledgeable, has a background in horticulture and seems committed to using only organic products. I don't want to give the false impression that he is actively involved in the care of your lawn; his crew of workers does all of the actual work as you'd expect. They seem adequate.

He is worth looking into certainly. His number is 868-5046. Hope it works out for you. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Glad to see that a fellow Long Islander is thinking twice about spreading poison around in the hopes of having that elusive green carpet of a lawn surrounding their home.

W.G.
