Organo-Lawn main branch is located in Boulder, Colorado in 1997 by Brad Wolfe. Organo-Lawn originally serviced the Front Range cities of Boulder, Erie, Longmont, Louisville, Superior and Niwot. As organic lawn care became more popular; demand grew and we expanded service to include the towns of Frederick, Firestone, Lyons and Mead. In 2003 Organo-Lawn kept growing and opened a second branch to service the Northern Front Range cites of Fort Collins, Loveland and the towns of Berthoud, Laporte, Wellington and Windsor. Organo-Lawn's offices started to get a lot of pet owners and people with small children or babies call looking for people and pet friendly lawn care. In 2009 we started servicing the suburbs of North Denver including the cities of Arvada, Broomfield, Golden and Westminster. Organic lawn and tree care is very helpful in keeping children, pets and the environment healthy and happy.
