different.
At Frankenmuth they were taken
to the Lutheran Church of St.
Lorenz. It is simply magnificent.
At Rochester, MTchigan on
Oakland University grounds, they
had lunch and toured

WHY AERATE YOUR LAWN?
Aeration is beneficial for your lawn in a number of ways. Aeration
will overcome a compacted soil. Compacted soils make it difficult
for roots to grow, limiting the movement of air, moisture and
fertilizer through the soil. It can also reduce your water
requirements by relieving soil compaction., Water penetration is
increased and water run-off is reduced.
If your lawn has a thick layer of thatch, aeration will push through
that layer and improve air, water and nutrient penetration. This
will enhance the development of a deep root system. A deeply
rooted lawn will be healthier and better able to withstand
drought, disease and insect stress. This process should be
considered Spring and Fall.
