Product Description

It is an informational "How to" guide for using organic methods to promote & sustain a healthy & beautiful lawn without the use of potentially harmful chemicals allowing you to create a safer outdoor environment for you, your family & pets allowing you the peace of mind to "Keep on the Grass". 

 

 

“There are so many beautiful green lawns with signs posted across the front that read, “Caution Keep Children and Pets Off”, but we all know how well kids and pets listen when it’s the first nice day outside and all they want to do is roll in the grass. I wrote my new book so that I can help educate families about just how easy it is to still have that same beautiful lawn, but also have a lawn that is safer, because for me, especially as a parent, that’s even more important;” explains McClennan. 

 

 A Beautiful Lawn Organically is an easy-to-understand book highlighting options that readers can use to create a safer outdoor environment for their families & pets allowing them the peace of mind to "keep on the grass." The book offers a multi-faceted approach of instructional measures as well as identification methods to maintain a beautiful lawn without the use of chemicals. The negative effects of a chemical treated lawn have been known to cause burns and vision problems and are even linked to Parkinson’s disease as well as ADHD. This should be enough to deter any family from using such products, but over his years in lawn care, McClennan found that many don’t know how easy organic lawn care can be. McClennan hopes his book will teach readers about the many alternatives to chemicals in hopes that it can keep families safe. 

 

The book is organized into four parts. The first part discusses how to diagnose and correct traditional lawn problems such as poor soil, heavy thatch, weeds, lawn disease and pests. Part two of the book helps the reader design a lawn care plan for them and instructs readers about fertilization, seeding, watering and proper mowing techniques. In part three, McClennan outlines how over a one-year period, readers can go from a chemically treated yard, to a natural organic lawn. Lastly, section four describes organic alternatives to a traditional lawn including the “retro” clover yard, the “low-mow” lawn, the Freedom lawn and how to put it all together.

  1. Straight talk about truly organic lawns -- the challenges and the techniques 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 3rd Jan 2019

    Alec lays out a clear path from whatever lawn you have now to a truly thriving organic lawn. It isn't a piece of cake -- there can be real challenges, and the journey takes time. But it's all doable, and Alec gives you the tools you'll need. You don't have to go 100% organic either. You can switch to organic (slow release) fertilizers, improve your mowing and watering practices, cut back on your usage of weed killers and pesticides, and get an excellent, much healthier, lawn.
