Tidbits: "The main reason people choose us is for peace of mind or safety," Wolfe said. "Most of our customers either have kids or pets. Once you do the research and know what kind of strong and dangerous products get sprayed on lawns by other companies, you wouldn't want your kids or pets out there on the grass either."

In order to provide an alternative to the chemicals of conventional lawn-care companies, Organo-Lawn offers organic and environmentally friendly options that are often more efficient. Organo-Lawn's customers tend to be environmentally conscious people, Wolfe said.

"Some of the conventional products don't break down for a long time," he said. "When it rains, they wash off into our water, lakes and streams, and they can do a lot of weird stuff to aquatic life like fish and frogs."

While most fertilizers are made from petroleum, Organo-Lawn uses plant-based materials like corn and beets that are "not only better for the lawn but are a renewable resource as well."

"We really try to practice what we preach," Wolfe said. "Our trucks run on biodiesel, 80 percent of our energy is solar and the rest is wind power, and we recycle. We try to make it a whole company practice."

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.
