Organic Bob

06/10/2024

Hello all! It's been a while since we've posted and that's because there's been A LOT going on over the past 6 months. Many of you are already aware that Organic Bob was acquired by Organic Lawns by LUNSETH this past December. A good thing! We spent the winter integrating our systems and programs into OLBL to create more offerings than either company previously had. Owner "Organic Bob" Dahm has joined the LUNSETH team along with several employees. Owner Randy Baker is now enjoying retirement and is traveling across the United States with his partner enjoying life on the road!

We intend to leave this page active on Facebook for the foreseeable future because there's a ton of great content on here and we want you all to have access to it.

Thank you for your years of support and business. We're excited to see what the future has in store and how we can further our mission through LUNSETH.

Cheers!

A yard without leaves and a garden without dead stalks sticking up all winter long brings a sense of satisfaction. But at Organic Bob we promote a love of untidy lawns and gardens. These organic materials serve to nurture the soil and also provide shelter for pollinators.

Our friends at the Pollinator Friendly Alliance explain that most pollinators stay over winter, looking for shelter in both plants and the ground.

Some Minnesotans are joyful when they do the last mow of fall because they won’t have to do it for another 6 or 7 months. Others may be a little glum because it’s an official end to warmer weather. Whatever your feelings are,

ORGANIC BOB EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH - RANDY BAKER
Randy describes himself as a born-again organic gardener who converted before it was cool. Prior to 1996 he had no interest in plants at all. Then he read “Step by Step to Organic Gardening” by Shep Ogden, and he was intrigued by organic gardening as a game of system management. Within a few weeks he had dug up the back yard and, encouraged by a good measure of beginner’s luck (things, after all, want to live), he was hooked. Randy is now a partner at Organic Bob. Read his full story on the "About" page at organicbob.com.

Chances are you've got some - or a lot of - grub damage this year. Most people seem like they do. Our friends at University of Minnesota Extension have great information on their site about controlling these pesky little things: https://extension.umn.edu/news/white-grub-control-lawns

Or you can contact Organic Bob for a quote on our grub control services. https://organicbob.com/get-quote/

Do you need some help w**ding your lawn?

Organic Bob's W**d & Seed program works like this:
- 4 hours of w**ding
- Applying a small amount of grass seed and compost mixture to the spots where w**ds are removed to help discourage the w**ds from coming back.
- You direct what area and whether you want general w**ding or have a specific w**d we you want targeted.
