Grand Rapids: The lawn on the left is a Good Sweet Earth lawn. The lawn on the right uses a chemical lawn company. The lawn on the right may be "100% weed free," but it sure doesn't look healthier than the Good Sweet Earth lawn on the left. The Good Sweet Earth lawn has been a customer of ours for going on 10 years and their soil supports a healthy yard with biodiversity and lush green turf.

Norton Shores: Meet Tom, a wild turkey we met at a yard we were spraying. Wild visitors like Tom don't read "Caution" signs. They don't know to stay off the lawn for 24-48 hours after a synthetic chemical treatment. The robin pulling worms from your soil doesn't know either. Neither do the bees on your clover. Conventional lawn treatments can leave behind residues harmful to wildlife. Our organic treatments are safe for your soil, your family and guys like Tom.

Holland: Wrapped up the month of May 2026 spraying lawns and landscapes along the always-scenic Lake Macatawa. Lake Macatawa has battled decades of agricultural runoff and phosphorus overload, and it was once ranked among Michigan's most polluted lakes. Since the early '10s, Project Clarity has helped cut phosphorus by 62% and keeps 46,000 tons of sediment out annually. Every lawn we treat organically in the vicinity of Lake Mac is one less source of chemical runoff into this watershed.

East GR: Here's a lawn that's probably 20-30% Dutch white clover. You know what the neighbors see? A thick, healthy lawn that stays green all summer. It doesn't look messy, weedy or out-of-place in this tidy little neighborhood. You have to be right

East GR: Here's a lawn that's probably 20-30% Dutch white clover. You know what the neighbors see? A thick, healthy lawn that stays green all summer. It doesn't look messy, weedy or out-of-place in this tidy little neighborhood. You have to be right on top of it to see that there's actually clover in it.

Hudsonville: Did you know that leaving your grass clippings on your lawn is an important source of nitrogen for your lawn? It can provide up to 1/3 of the nitrogen your turfgrass needs for the entire season! Plus, it's a great way to add organic matter to your soil and boost microbial activity. Even if you don't have a mulching mower, take the bag off and let the clippings stay. And no, this doesn't cause thatch. They're also a great food source for the microbes in the Tea we spray on lawns.

Rockford: When we're at a house, we're not just spraying turf and landscaping, we're spraying soil. Sometimes bare soil. Because for things (like grass) to thrive, soil needs life. Our Compost Tea has microbes— bacteria, fungi— that are the heart and soul of a healthy yard. They break down organic matter into nutrients your plants can actually use. They improve soil structure so water penetrates instead of running off. They compete with pathogens and help suppress disease.

Grand Rapids: here's the thing about biodiversity: it's NOT weakness in your yard, it's an asset. When we treat your turf, we're treating your whole outdoor space. That clover that's fixing nitrogen in your lawn? The pollinator-friendly wildflowers in your beds? The beneficial insects living in your mulch? They all work together to create a healthier, more resilient yard. 🌱☘️🌻🦋🪱🦠 An organic lawn isn't just about the grass. It's about building an ecosystem where everything thrives.

The soil is so rich that we literally have to put up walls to keep grass out. So what if your lawn soil was that good too? That's organic lawn care, that's the Good Sweet Earth way. Build up healthy soil, and the grass will grow. 🌱

Norton Shores: Cool, cloudy and rainy weather doesn't stop us from spraying lawns. Applying our Worm Compost Tea when it's raining is actually pretty great! It means less evaporation and the rain helps push the microbes deeper into the soil. 🪱🦠

Hamilton: Putting in the work to build up organic matter in the soil around evergreens will definitely help lock in moisture for the turf and give it a much better chance to thicken up and look good.
