We had the need to place two small orders with them in the past two weeks. Both were received with a business like and friendly manner. They return phone messages! Promptly! Excellent quality product and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend them. The drive to their farm is worth the trip in itself! About 15 minutes from town.

Although I haven't needed to buy Turf ( yet anyways:). I have seen them working literally morning to night and building this business in just a few years by dint of hard work and good service. Open hearted people in this community
