Safe Lawn Care

We All Want Safe Lawn Care

Safe lawn care is something that we are all concerned about. We want to know that our lawns are safe for our children and for our pets. We also want to make sure that what we put on our lawns is not harming the earth. At the same time, we all still want the American dream of a lush, green yard.

It Is A Tough Balancing Act

At Allentuck Landscaping Co., one of our goals is to always deliver a top quality service to our customers while still be good stewards of the environment. After all, we are leaders in the original “green industry”.

Our Lawn Care Program Uniquely Delivers On Both Promises

Our program introduces a 100% organic bionutrient plant probiotic that balances the soil’s ecosystem, building strong roots and growing healthier, more resilient plants. By improving the soil the grass grows in, the lawn will naturally be stronger and healthier.

Instead of lots of chemicals, our program uses an abundant and diverse list of beneficial microorganisms, microbial food sources and organic additives that turn a small amount of fertilizer into the most effective plant treatment available. By using these bionutrients, we can reduce your inputs by up to 75%.

These mean less pesticides to be concerned with for your children and pets, and less nutrients to run-off and pollute our streams, rivers and the Chesapeake Bay.

Let’s Talk About It

The Best Privacy Trees for Homeowners: Green Giant Arborvitae vs. Leyland Cypress vs. Cryptomeria

Allentuck Landscaping November 11, 2025

Backyard privacy shouldn’t be complicated. Homeowners just want a fast-growing, good-looking screen that blocks noise, hides neighboring windows, and makes a yard feel like a retreat. The best privacy trees can do all of that, and more. But not every evergreen behaves the same way. Some shoot up like rockets. Others handle cold better. Some stay dense year-round with almost no babysitting. Choosing the right one matters, or you’ll be staring at gaps, browning branches, or a tree that simply

Allentuck Landscaping October 29, 2025

There’s nothing quite like stepping onto your own patio for the first time.

But before that first step comes a much less glamorous (and far more important) one: planning. A patio isn’t something you wing. It’s something you design to fit your life.

And homeowners often have no idea what separates a great experience from a stressful, drawn-out mess. So, let’s break this down clearly, honestly, and in plain English. No industry jargon. No sugarcoating. Just the real stuff most companies won’t
