Managing lawns with ecology in mind with Chris Enroth
About this episode
The episode discusses sustainable lawn care practices with horticulture educator Chris Enroth.
Today we chat with Chris Enroth , horticulture educator for Illinois Extension, about how we can approach our lawn care with fewer inputs. We chat about why we even have lawns, top tips for a healthy lawn with fewer inputs, demystifying seed mixes, and how to shrink your lawn to support pollinators and other wildlife. We get in the weeds this episode and have a fun discussion with lots of examples from our own yards. Check out Chris on the Good Growing podcast and blog !
