A Lawn Is Alive
This simple statement may seem obvious, but many people see their lawn as a green outdoor carpet free of imperfections that stays uniformly green all summer. As seasons progress, a healthy lawn responds to moisture, heat, and other natural phenomena. Organic Soil Solutions makes your lawn and soil as healthy and happy as possible. We promote deep roots, plenty of leaf surface, and lots of biology in the soil, so the grass can get the air, water, and food it needs. We provide the foundation for a healthy lawn to meet the challenges and accept the gifts that Mother Nature provides. We use a completely organic and proactive approach to plant and soil health care.
The Organic Soil Solutions program renews, revitalizes, corrects, and conditions your soil. Healthy living soil leads directly to healthy thriving trees, shrubs, and lawns. To preserve your landscaping investment, start with the most basic component—your soil.
We are available for your organic lawn and landscaping needs.

Lawn Maintenance
Lawn Maintenance is a big part of our business and it goes far beyond mowing your grass.
“I want to take this opportunity to say thank you for the years of wonderful care you and your men took of the lawn. It really looked SO much better after you started working with it! Please give my personal thanks to Doug, who, as you know, I can’t say enough good things about. I

“Just a quick note to give special kudos to Brian and Alfredo, they came to do overseeding today, the lawn looks so terrific there was not much of that needed, but we had a truck that had to back over the lawn with a load of bricks and compressed ruts across part of the lawn.
Bob P. Boxborough, MA

“Very Professional! Workers were kind enough to remove stray toys out of the yard and didn’t complain when my 4-year-old kept asking them questions about what they were doing! We are a work in progress. Was in pretty bad shape to begin with. There’s actually grass growing this year! They are definitely coming

“Thanks so much…I cringe when I see the little yellow flags go up on lawns to keep pets and children off after toxic chemicals have been applied. I wish I had gone natural years ago.

“The team came once or twice a month to seed, to fertilize, to rake and clear the lawn. After each visit, Mike would leave a letter explaining what was done and how we could help the lawn. They basically gave us our lawn back. And, it’s all organic!! If we had questions or changes to

“The company was contacted in July 2013 because I was tired of hit or miss attempts on my part at caring for our lawn. Based on reviews and a visit by Mike, I was impressed by the program which uses organic fertilizers along with slice seeding, aerating and application of lime after taking soil samples

“When we went organic my husband was skeptical that our lawn would look as good as our neighbor’s chemically managed lawn. The first year was tough on the lawn, but as Mike would reiterate, that is normal because most of the activity and fortification is happening in the soil and roots of the grass. It

“I used Organic Soil Solutions to put down new topsoil and reseed my entire lawn. I now use them for seasonal lawn fertilization and treatment. They are good and we are amazed. Our grass had been burned out last summer and we had somebody else taking care of it and they did not succeed.
Mary L. Wellesley, MA

“Katie and I wanted to let you know how great we think our yards look right now thanks to your crew’s excellent edging and mulching job…This morning, Katie remarked to me that “those guys really know how to make the flower beds look great”, and how much she appreciated having time for us to do

WE’RE MAKING PROGRESS IN ORGANIC LAWN CARE
Happy New Year! This is the time to reflect on life and think about how to make more progress in 2014. Life can be a constant struggle to make sense out of things we don’t understand. What makes perfect sense for one person sounds like crazy talk to another. Things…
COMPOST TEA HELPS MAKE HEALTHY LAWNS, PLANTS AND
We recently applied compost tea to our customers’ lawns. The compost tea is comprised of microbial foods to refresh the life in the soil and add some more. The bacteria, fungi, nematodes and protozoa are the life blood of the soil. I love to see all the activity in our…
Spread Happiness with Organic Fertilizer
Organic Soil Solutions uses a soy-based fertilizer that is nutritious and delicious for the soil bacteria and fungi. They, in turn, provide a healthy snack for the protozoa and nematodes. A little too much nitrogen for their taste, however, and the excess is released in the form of ammonium (NH4+)….
Mike Murray: Organic Lawn Detective
Some people think organic lawn care is boring, but Mike Murray, lawn detective, knows otherwise… Case #1 – The Dead Spot A recent case involved a persistent dead spot in someone’s front lawn. The home owner had replaced the sod in that area several years in a row and couldn’t…
A New Form of Mosquito Control
We’ve all been there. You’re outside on the patio trying to enjoy a nice, summer evening, but you spend the whole time slapping and swatting at those annoying mosquitoes. Or, even worse, you don’t slap or swat in time and get an itchy mosquito bite the size of a golf…
Three Ways to Remove Invasive Plants
Invasive plants are the unwanted guests at the party. Yes, someone invited them, but who knew they would act like such cads. With no pests or diseases to keep them at bay, they take over the room, pushing everyone else to the side. There is a list of plants that…
Seeding Bare Spots to Make Healthy Soil
In our continued efforts this spring to bring healthy, organic lawns to the masses, we most recently seeded bare spots and damaged areas of our client’s lawns with a spring seed that germinates quickly and crowds out weeds. By maintaining an organic lawn, you are contributing to a living, breathing…
Needham Opts for Organic Lawn Care

An Organic Lawn with Good Soil Means Fewer Grubs
Grubs are nasty creatures. They are ugly and have invaded from Asia and Europe. The beetles they turn into aren’t exactly George Clooney, either! Their most redeeming feature is that they make a nice lunch for skunks, crows and voles. And these creatures may not be the ones you want…
The Shocking Truth About Lawn Care Chemicals
The lawns of Organic Soil Solutions’ customers are beginning to receive their first application of organic soy-based fertilizer. It is great to hear the birds chirping and feel the warm sun. The fertilizer will wake up the soil biology and get the grass off to a quick start. Arsenate, DDT…
