  • Help reverse the trend of bee decline by planting this seed for bees with a mix of fine-fescue grasses and flowers. Flowers will provide high quality nutrition for bees and other pollinators.
  • Critical for much of our food supply, pollinators are in decline due to habitat loss and pesticide use. Adding habitat to our neighborhoods can make a large impact.
  • Can be treated much like a regular lawn. Mow at least 3” high and refrain from mowing when flowers are blooming. Mowing is optional, and flowers will bloom more profusely if left unmown or infrequently mown.
  • Do not use herbicide; control weeds by hand weeding.
  • White clover in these bee friendly seeds fixes atmospheric nitrogen, reducing the need for nitrogen fertilizer.

New lawn:

Seed 150lbs/acre (or 4lbs/1000 sq. ft).

Lawn Seed Mixtures for the Homestead

The secret to establishing a new lawn faster?

Variety and quality. Our seed mixtures include improved varieties with better drought resistance, earlier spring green-up, vibrant green color, and overall better lawn health. No annual species, clay coatings, noxious weeds, or fillers – just pure, quality seed for a greener yard.

MIXTURE SEEDING RATE

Bare soil:

Broadcast or drill 150-250 lbs per acre (4-7 lbs per 1,000 sq ft). Use heavier rate for quicker establishment and fill. Use lower rates if drilling seed.

Existing lawns:

Overseed at 75-175 lbs per acre (2-4 lbs per 1,000 sq ft). Use lower rates if drilling seed. Mow as short as possible, aerate or disturb soil with shovel or rake, spread seed.

A beautiful lawn

I have used this seed mix as a lovely path between my native plant beds in the yard. It’s beautiful, lush and inviting. I am now replacing my weed filled backyard lawn with this mix. It’s great!

very nice mix

I overseeded with this mixture last Fall after aerating. It is coming up great this Spring and looks very green. I have yet to see clover or flowers as it is early in the season, but I am very happy so far. I plan on adding the urban pollinator wildflower mix here soon. I'll update when the clover and things start popping up.
