Turf requires no mowing, which eliminates fuel and labor costs.
Eliminates costs for supplies, such as fertilizers and pesticides.

No required watering, which means a reduction in water and energy costs.

Environmentally friendly

Removal of significant amounts of fertilizer and pesticides, which reduces the chance of contaminating groundwater.
