High-maintenance Kentucky Bluegrass lawns are going the way of the dinosaur. Climate change, invasive grubs, drought, water quality concerns and the health of nature and people are causing many of us to ask if there is something better. There is. Alternative turf is what many people are asking about, from bee lawn to no mow and all native turfs. Come and learn different methods to remove lawns and replace them with an alternative lawn that can actually heal the Earth, mitigate climate change, protect water quality and pollinators and leave us all feeling hopeful. Presented at The DIRT demonstration stage in the Agriculture-Horticulture Building.
