Turfgrass offers many environmental and social benefits. From the ballfields our children play on to city parks, turfgrass is very present in our everyday life. Aside from aesthetics, turf cools the air on those hot summer days and even cleans it. From producing and cleaning the air, turf also cleans water and keeps it clean by reducing erosion and run-off pollution. It gives us a natural setting to play or just relax on and even makes us feel better. That's right it can even make you feel better! If you didn't hear it the first time it may have been because it can also reduce outside noise by 10 decibels. Not to mention increasing your home value up to 15%.   For additional benefits of turfgrass, please visit our neighbor site at TheLawnInstitute.org.
