NaturesTurf® is a pre-grown native grassland system designed to remove the uncertainty of establishing native vegetation from seed. Grown in an intensive open air nursery setting, using regionally apprporiate species, NaturesTurf® is delivered fully vegetated in a sod-like format with a fully intact root system providing built-in erosion control, and instant vegetative cover from the moment it's installed.
Ideal for projects where traditional seeding is too slow, inconsistent, or high-risk due to site conditions or timelines, NaturesTurf® offers a reliable, scalable, and ecologically sound path to successful establishment of native plant communities.

The innovation packed into NatureTurf® ensures your project closes fast and provides the asthetic your intended.
NaturesTurf™ is grown as a dense mat of native grass species on a biodegradable erosion control blanket. Unlike conventional sod, the plant roots are not cut during harvest. Instead, the root systems remain intact within the growing medium.
This allows the product to be rolled, transported, and installed without stressing the plants.
Once installed, the roots actively grow into the underlying soil, supporting continuedestablishment and long-term site adaptation.
Immediate vegetative cover is achieved at installation.
The following videos demonstrate how NaturesTurf® is grown, installed and mtaintained in real-world conditions.

NaturesTurf™ is new and limited on the market, there isn’t yet widespread familiarity with how it looks when it first arrives. Most installers and landscape contractors are accustomed to laying traditional sod, which is lush, bright green, and nearly picture-perfect the moment it hits the ground. NaturesTurf™ doesn’t arrive like this. We like to say it’s still building its potential prairie purpose, whether on the big roll tube or as soon as it’s installed on site, there is activity happening in every square foot.
When designing products for naturalization or reclamation, we always use nature as our guide and select specific species based on their various adaptations. One of these adaptations is drought tolerance.
