About Us

As a father to a now one-year-old and husband to a dietitian, I am still proud that all of Urban Lawn and Garden’s services are “organic” and “green.” I believe in being a steward of the planet and in living an active, healthy lifestyle. Urban Lawn and Garden practices sustainability by using nature’s processes to grow, maintain, and fertilize your lawn and garden. Urban Lawn and Garden customers can rest assured that every service we provide is safe for their loved ones and the environment.

Last year was a blast and tremendous learning curve for Urban. We have learned that Oklahoma City is not only ready for sustainable lawn care, but is extremely excited about it. Urban is making a few changes to help keep up with demand.

To keep our products local and our prices low, Compost Extract is replacing our Compost Tea as our main lawn fertilizer. Urban Lawn and Garden is also expanding this year to become OKC’s only full-service, eco-friendly lawn care provider. Our services include mowing, trimming, edging, and blowing off drive/walkways. Our Prius is replacing the work-truck and our equipment is all electric. And finally, the kicker is all off our electricity is off-set by our solar panels. That’s right, we are going to be carbon neutral in 2012!!! As always we are still providing raised garden beds to our customers, but the standard is now a 4ft by 8ft bed. We no longer offer plantings, but will ready your garden for you to buy and plant what’s best for your family.

Thanks to all our customers for believing in us!

History

Urban Lawn and Garden was born out of the demand for fresh “organic” vegetables and the use of “Victory Gardens” during both World Wars. During the wars, the world’s food supply was in shortage due to the fact that most of the labor was off fighting. Therefore, the U.S. and many other countries asked citizens to build gardens in their yards to counteract the shortage. Urban Lawn and Garden believes the “Backyard Garden” could be the solution for those who desire fresh “organic” vegetables at a reasonable price.

Mission

Our goal at Urban Lawn and Garden is to provide lawn maintenance and vegetable garden services in the most sustainable way possible.
