Grasshopper Gardens will make your lawn in Saratoga or Albany, NY healthy and vibrant with a professional aeration. These services provide your lawn with room to breathe and a pathway for all essential nutrients to reach the roots.

Half-inch diameter plugs of thatch and soil are actually pulled from the ground during this process.
