Grosh's
Lawn Service Honors the Memory of Joan Hull
Dedicated
Clear Spring Historian passed away last week.
It is with
great sadness that we at Grosh's Lawn Service announce that our
beloved client, and lifelong Clear Spring, MD resident, Joan
Hall, has passed away. Joan was a longtime historian who
loved to share bits of historical knowledge with anyone and
everyone! As many know, she, along with Linda Irvin Craig, lead the
charge for saving Plumb Grove.
I wanted to share a story with you about Joan, and a special project
that our team completed for her. The Grosh's Lawn Service team loved
working at Mrs. Hull's home. Each week, she made sure that she
had treats on hand for our four-legged friends that joined us at the
job. In fact, she usually asked for the dogs to come inside her home
to see her on days she could not make it outside.
Early morning on Saturday, July 25, Grosh's Lawn Service surprised
Mrs. Hull with an Extreme Landscape Makeover at her home. Tom and the
team trimmed all the shrubs, pulled all the weeds, cut off all the
wild trees, removed dead shrubs and plants, cleaned up all the down
tree limbs and leaves in the landscape beds.
We then edged
all the landscape beds, removed all the sod from edging and then
mulched with Mrs. Hull's favorite color RED! She so loved red
mulch and how the evergreen shrubs looked against the red mulch.
We are so grateful for the time we got to spend with Mrs. Hull and
wanted to share this story as an example of what landscaping can do
for you, and the ones you cherish. A well-designed landscape
can raise your spirit and makes life so much more enjoyable and
bright!

Fall
Aeration
Do you know
what is in this photo?
Over-seeding,
combined with aeration, will help thicken a lawn where the grass is
thin, or has died out. It also provides the following benefits
to your lawn and its root system:
- fertilizers
and nutrients get access to the root system;
- oxygen
gets to the roots and the soil allowing it to breathe;
- water is
able to better soak into the soil and reach the root
system;
- helps to
break up thatch;
- tight,
compacted soil is loosened up allowing the root system to grow.
Did you know
that compacted soil makes it very hard for rain/ moisture to reach
the roots of the grass? When soil is compacted, most if not all
of the moisture, runs off and there is no benefit to the grass or
surrounding trees, shrubs or the water table! Plus, compacted soil
makes it very difficult for the nutrients (fertilizer) to reach the
grass' roots. Aeration solves these problems!
When aerating a lawn, also give some serious consideration to over
seeding at the same time to help thicken up the turf and to
compensate for areas that have thin turf or where the turf has
lived it's life cycle and died out.
We recommend that the lawn be as weed free as possible to achieve the
best possible results from the aeration.
For more information on aeration, email Tom today at Tom@GroshsLawnService.com or give him a
call at 301-842-0062.

The
Critter Column
Veterinarian Hannah
M. Smith, DVM provides clients with feedback on their questions.
Please email Tom to submit a
question for next month's newsletter.
Keep That
Winter Weight Off Your Four-Legged Friends
Keeping your
pets at a healthy weight is vital. Did you know that 53% or dogs
and 55% of cats in America are overweight or obese? This can
lead to many health problems for your four-legged family member,
resulting in increased veterinary costs, and decrease in
lifespan, and quality of life.
Specifically, overweight and obese pets are more prone to
osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart and
respiratory disease, kidney disease, and cancer. This means less
quality of life for your pet, more medications, more trips to the
vet, and a shortened life.
In order to get your pet looking svelte again, these three things are
important.
- Decrease
the amount of food and make sure you are measuring! Look at
the back of the bag of dog food and feed for ideal weight
instead of current weight (talk to your vet about an ideal
weight for your pet). Remember, spayed and neutered dogs
often need even less than what is printed on the back of the
bag.
- Cut down
on treats! Yes, that means very limited table scraps, and
dog treats. Use them sparingly as a reward.
- Increase
exercise! Long slow walks are great, or go to the local
dog park, play fetch, or go for a jog. Your dog will love
spending time with you and will be happy to get those extra
pounds off.
