This Fall
- Between Oct .1 and Nov. 30, We will rake your leaves over two service visits. The first visit when about haft
of the leaves are down, the second when most or all the leaves are down.
You have the choice;
Choice #1 The leaves are raked, bagged and left on your property, ready for municipal pick up. The
District Municipality of Muskoka offers free pick up of yard waste on Saturday, November 6 and
Saturday, November 13. Customers must provide the paper bags.
Choice #2 We blow and rake your leaves into piles, load them onto a tarp, and drag them to your
back yard. The leaves will eventually turn into mulch.
Choice #3 We blow and rake your leaves into piles, load them onto a tarp, and drag them to your
front culvert where they will be vacuumed and hauled away.
- The purpose of top dressing is to fill in all the minor low areas that have developed during the season, and
to build up an ideal soil layer over the years.
- Prepares for seeding.
- Fall is a good time to till your garden soil, especially if there is sod to be turned under.
- This will reduce erosion, expose heavy soils to frost, kill exposed insects.
- Aid the decay of organic matter and enable earlier planting.
- Work in any organic matter you have available when you till.
- If you do this every fall you will find that your garden takes less time and work to prepare every year.

This Spring
- Leaves, branches, fallen trees and other yard debris are removed from your lawn and shrub
areas.
- Rake and break the ridges from moles.
- Sweeping walkway, curb and driveway.
- Pressure washing.
- This will get your property looking good and ready for the summer.
- Maintaining your trees and shrubs is crucial in keeping your landscaping looking its best. We
will help maintain that look for you by pruning your plantings as requested.
- Thatch is a layer of organic matter made up of decaying grass leaves, stems and roots that build
up in between the lawn and soil surface. It is a common problem on home lawns, particularly for
lawns established for several years.
- A thatchy lawn feels very spongy when walked on. Cut a triangular patch of lawn with a sharp
knife and lift it back to measure the thickness of the thatch layer. More than 2.5 cm of thatch is
too much.
- Thatch harbours insects and diseases. Thatch can restrict grass roots from growing into the soil
root zone, resulting in a shallow rooted lawn. Thatch interferes with water infiltration.
- Cultural practices that minimize thatch development are: frequent mowing, proper watering and
proper fertilization.
- Excess thatch can be removed by vertical mowing or core aerating. Core aerate using a hollow
steel tine core aerator which removes cores of soil. This physically breaks up the thatch, brings
up beneficial soil micro-organisms that help break down the thatch and alleviates compaction.
- Dethatch or aerate in spring and fall during periods of good growth, allowing for quick lawn
recovery.

- Aeration removes thousands of small cores of soil 1" to 3" in length from your lawn. These cores
"melt" back into the lawn after a few rainfalls, mixing with whatever thatch exists on your lawn.
The holes created by aeration catch fertilizer and water. Turf roots naturally grow toward these
growth pockets and thicken in the process. Aeration holes also relieve pressure from
compacted soils, letting oxygen and water move more freely into the root system.
