Made in the Shade: How to Turn Your Yard’s "Dark Side" into a Jungle
Hello neighbors, Jeremy Klice here. We all have that one spot in the yard. Maybe it’s the north side of the house where the sun has apparently been banned by a homeowner's association covenant. Or maybe it’s under that massive maple tree where you’ve tried to grow grass three times, and the grass has politely responded by dying immediately. In Jamestown, our humid summers can make these shady corners feel a bit like a steam room. But here is the good news: while your lawn hat

Preventing the "Winter Burn": Why Your Evergreens Look Like They Got a Tan in January
Hello neighbors, Jeremy Klice here. We need to talk about a confusing phenomenon. You look out your window in February, and despite the fact that it’s 10 degrees below freezing and there hasn't been sunshine since the Bills last made the Super Bowl, your shrubs look... sunburned? They turn that rusty, crispy brown color that suggests they spent too much time on a beach in Florida without sunscreen. But no, they’ve been sitting in a frozen snowbank in Jamestown. This is called

Designing for Snow: How to Keep the Plow Guy from Wrecking Your Yard
Hello neighbors, Jeremy Klice here. If you’re planning a landscape renovation this year, I have one question for you: Where is the snow going to go? In some parts of the country, landscaping is designed for summer barbecues and spring blooms. In Jamestown, we have to design for January. If we don’t, your beautiful new landscape will likely turn into a casualty of our annual battle against the "white stuff." Winter changes how your property works. It changes where you can walk

Secret Lives Under the Snow: Identifying Voles vs. Moles
Hello neighbors, Jeremy Klice here. Spring in Jamestown is a magical time. The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and the snow piles are finally receding to reveal… a complete disaster on your front lawn. If your yard looks like a map of the New York City subway system carved into the grass, don't panic. You haven’t been visited by aliens making crop circles. You’ve been hosting a winter party for some very busy rodents. But before you go declaring war on the wrong critt

The Best Grass for Jamestown: Why Your Lawn Needs a Team, Not a Solo Artist
Hey everyone, Jeremy Klice here. Living in Jamestown means dealing with a climate that has a bit of a split personality. We have winters that can freeze the coffee in your cup before you get to the car, and summers that are humid enough to make you feel like you’re swimming while walking to the mailbox. Because of this "Freeze-Then-Steam" cycle, picking the right grass seed isn't just about grabbing the cheapest bag at the hardware store. If you pick the wrong grass, you’re b

Salt vs. Your Landscape: How to Stop Your Driveway from Killing Your Grass
Hello neighbors, Jeremy Klice here! If you’ve lived in Jamestown for more than five minutes, you know we really only have two seasons: "Humid" and "Snowplow." We survive our winters by layering up, drinking hot coffee, and throwing down rock salt like it’s confetti at a New Year’s Eve party. And while that salt keeps your car from sliding into the neighbor’s living room, it has a nasty habit of turning the edges of your lawn into a crispy, brown wasteland come April. Have you
