Our Portland, Oregon location is just seventy miles north of the “Grass Seed Capital of the World”-- Oregon’s beautiful Willamette Valley. We’re located in the heart of Portland’s friendly (and funky) near east side. Parking is available in our bay and in a reserved street spot out front.
*In addition to seed, we also sell soil amendments for lawn installations and maintenance that we do not sell online:
Grass Straw Mulch
The top dressing of choice – organic, biodegradable, and made in Oregon. A by-product of the grass seed industry, our mulch is weed-free, holds moisture and protects new seed plantings. Full and half bales available; one full bale covers about 1,000 square feet. Grass straw mulch rollers are available for rent.
Fertilizers
We carry assorted fertilizers for all of your lawn needs, including:
10-2-8 Nature Safe 100% Organic Fertilizer
15-0-10 All Season Fertilizer
10-16-10 Starter Fertilizer
Lime
Annual lime applications are beneficial for our acidic Pacific Northwest lawns by allowing nutrients to be absorbed effectively. Lawns thrive in a neutral soil pH of 6.5 - 7.0.
Iron
The presence of moss in your lawn indicates poor growing conditions for grass. Moss grows where grass cannot survive--in nutrient poor soil, soil with high acidity, soil that is compacted or drains poorly or where there is excessive shade or thatch accumulation. Iron, also known as ferrous sulphate, applied in winter or early spring kills moss. After the moss turns brown, rake it loose with a garden rake and remove it from the lawn.
Equipment
We sell handheld ergonomic broadcast and shaker spreaders. Grass straw mulch rollers are available for rent. We do not rent motorized equipment.
