Advanced Care for a Flourishing Lawn

Our backyards and green spaces may look simple, but each is a complex ecosystem all its own. To cultivate a beautiful, thriving, pest-free green space, it takes time, specialized equipment and materials, and expert ecosystem management.

Dixie’s Lawn Care Program has streamlined and optimized our approach to expert lawn care. Our veteran team boasts decades of experience working with Georgia green spaces, and consolidated the ecosystem management process into 7 visits or “rounds” per year. We tailor our Lawn Care Programs to suit the primary type of grass and vegetation for each project. In the Atlanta area there are 2 main groups of Turf grasses Warm Season and Cool Season outlined below.
