I was a customer for 8 years and sadly had to cancel this year as my lawn has degraded substantially. I used to have a thick lush lawn which I give velvet green credit for but service and my lawn has degraded last few years. Despite overseeding and aeration in spring my lawn is thin with bare spots and getting…

Patty took the time to explain the services we were getting and when we would need to water in the treatments. Plus she explained when we might add in other services down the road.

Before engaging Velvet Green, for years I maintained my lawn myself using off the shelf products from the big box stores and the lawn was always mediocre. When I engaged Velvet Green, they did a soil analysis of the lawn and considered it's needs in their recommended treatment plan. Now, the lawn is actually healthy and looks great!

I have a tricky, old lawn that has deteriorated inexplicably over the last few years. I am a bit of a lawn junky and am a bit lucky that I can do my own lawn and landscaping using 8 summers of knowledge working in a greenhouse and nursery in my youth! I tried many approaches to "renew" my old lawn and bare spots but…

I've been working with Velvet Green for a few years now. They do an excellent job maintaining my lawn. The grass is thick, dark green, and mostly weed free. Using only organic materials gives me peace of mind. They're not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.
