2020 Healthy Virginia Lawns  - Schedule Home Visits in August & September  2020

Members of the Healthy Virginia Lawn and Landscape team are trained Extension Master Gardener volunteers, who perform lawn and landscape assessments for Hampton homeowners.  We do all the sampling and provide homeowner's with a personalized report that offers recommendations on: lime and fertilizer applications, aeration and soil compaction, perennial, shrub, and tree plantings; proper mowing height, and pest management, if applicable.

Cost of this program is $30.00 and includes one soil sample.  Additional soil samples are $10.00.  This program is for Hampton residents only!  Scheduling home visits for lawn assessments in August and September 2020.
