Spring is a season of renewal—and increasingly, that includes how homeowners manage their lawns and landscapes. One of our recent calls highlights a growing concern: how can we care for beautiful outdoor spaces without compromising health or the environment?
In this post, we’ll break down a real conversation with a property manager whose client wants to go fully pesticide-free. We’ll address common concerns, explain our organic approach, and help homeowners understand their options.
We recently spoke with a property manager who oversees several high-end homes in the region. One of his clients has an autoimmune condition and has become increasingly concerned about the health impacts of synthetic lawn treatments. After doing extensive research, she decided to eliminate all pesticides from her landscape care.
She tasked her property manager with finding a company that could support a full transition to organic lawn, shrub, and tree care. The manager contacted us seeking answers and guidance.
During the conversation, the property manager asked several thoughtful questions that we often hear from homeowners:
Many homeowners are looking for completely chemical-free options. This question helps clarify how natural the service truly is.
Homeowners want to know if the organic approach extends beyond turf to ornamental plants, flowers, and hedges.
Health concerns often drive the switch to organic, so transparency around ingredients and methods is critical.
People often wonder if they’ll still receive the same level of care—like pruning, mulching, and cleanups—without the use of synthetic products.
When switching providers, homeowners appreciate having a point of comparison and want to ensure nothing is missed.
We assured the property manager of the following:
Yes, we offer 100% organic lawn care and plant treatments—but we also provide a full range of services for those who want a hybrid or tailored approach. We’re not rigid “organic extremists,” but we absolutely have the tools, knowledge, and materials to maintain properties pesticide-free.
We understand that some clients are immunocompromised or highly sensitive to chemicals. Our organic materials are carefully selected to avoid harmful residues and lower health risks. This makes our services ideal for people looking to reduce chemical exposure at home.
From spring and fall cleanups to pruning hydrangeas, turning beds, and mulching—we do it all. We can build a completely pesticide-free plan tailored to your property’s needs and your health concerns.
We welcomed the idea of reviewing the previous landscaper’s contract. Knowing what services were provided helps us build a comparable or improved plan using only organic methods.
We suggested a walkthrough of the property to assess its condition, discuss plant care, and recommend an organic plan. This allows us to provide accurate pricing and explain our methods directly.
Many homeowners, especially those managing health conditions, are rethinking synthetic landscaping products. Research has shown potential links between long-term pesticide exposure and autoimmune issues, endocrine disruption, and even neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease.
Switching to organic landscaping is not just a trend—it’s a wellness decision.
Yes. With proper timing and materials, organic fertilizers and soil amendments can promote deep-rooted, resilient lawns and plants. It may take time, but the results are long-lasting and healthier overall.
Yes, we offer organic mosquito control using plant-based ingredients like cedarwood, citronella, and garlic oil. These are safe for children, pets, and pollinators.
Not entirely, but we use physical removal and organic pre-emergents to keep weed pressure low. Consistent maintenance is key to success.
Initially, organic care can be slightly more costly, but long-term benefits include healthier soil, fewer treatments, and reduced environmental harm.
It starts with stopping all synthetic treatments, improving soil biology, and using compost-based fertilizers. A site evaluation can help set realistic goals and timelines.
