🌱 NEW EPISODE: Sod 101 with Neil Kelly 🚜

Thinking about installing sod but not sure where to start? In this episode of Wiregrass Grown, we head out to a local sod farm to learn everything homeowners need to know before choosing grass for their yard.

From the different types of sod available to tips on installation, maintenance, and selecting the best option for your lifestyle, Neil Kelly helps break down what consumers should consider when creating a healthy, beautiful lawn.

Watch now and learn what goes into every part of sod, from the farm to your yard! 🌿
