Sod in the news

Sod Installation

One of the great things about sod is that it doesn’t have to be permanent. Just like a sod farm will cut it out of the ground when it is ready for sod installation in Seattle, so too can existing sod be re-used. If you want to strip your front lawn bare and transplant it into you back lawn, the option is there. Though we’d advise you consider fresh sod in Seattle before performing lawn surgery. This re-use had led to some recent altruism on the part of Picayune Memorial High School in Mississippi.

Sod finds a new home

When the school decided to get artificial grass for their field, instead of throwing away perfectly good sod, they decided to re-use it. The city was having significant trouble growing grass on a specific side of a city park. Instead of bulldozing the school’s field, city officials negotiated to purchase it at roughly half the going rate. Ironically, the park was the city’s very first football field back in 1922. Many residents have found it fitting that a football field is now helping it to find new life.

While the drought in California has been severely limiting both sod farmers and homeowners ability to purchase it, the market in Washington remains strong.
