Portland Customers:
Please note our website does not accommodate local pickups. If you have questions or a long shopping list, please call ahead for consultation and allow us time to stage your order. We offer service in our warehouse/garage bay area. Please be prepared to load yourself; carts will be available for moving larger items. Thank you for taking care of a little piece of the earth with our seed.
*Soil temperatures need to be 50 degrees or warmer for seed germination. In the Pacific NW we've had a cool spring, but now (late April) is a good time to seed for most. Summer is also an acceptable time to plant, just know you'll likely need more water to establish.
Seasonal Hours: Mon - Fri 10:00a - 4:00p.
Please contact us for an appointment outside of these hours.

Our Portland, Oregon shop is just seventy miles north of the “Grass Seed Capital of the World”-- in 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 our eco-lawn, traditional grass seed and wildflower seed mixes, we also sell soil amendments and fertilizers 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 1,000 square feet.
Fertilizers
Pro Time carries assorted fertilizers for all of your lawn needs, including 100% organic Nature Safe fertilizer.
Lime
Annual lime applications are beneficial to our acidic Pacific Northwest lawns by allowing nutrients to be absorbed effectively.
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 Rental
We sell handheld ergonomic broadcast spreaders. The following are available for rent: grass straw mulch roller, water roller, landscape rake. We do not rent motorized equipment.
