is Grasscycling?

Grasscycling is the natural recycling of grass by leaving the clippings on the lawn when mowing. Grass clippings decompose quickly and release valuable nutrients back into your lawn. It’s simple, and it works! For a free Grasscycle brochure call Master Composters at 408-918-4640.

waste during the growing season. To keep these out of the waste
stream, try Grasscycling; it’s easy! Grasscycling is the natural
recycling of grass by leaving clippings on the lawn when mowing.
They decompose quickly and release valuable nutrients back into
the soil. Call the Master Composter "Rotline" at 408-918-4640
