Renovate My Garden With Me: Installing A Lawn Part 1
Hi everyone, welcome to part 1 of my “Creating a lawn from scratch” video series.
I’m Brad, a greenkeeper and groundsperson with more than 10 years’ experience working with grass. After moving into my own home I’m finally getting the chance to renovate my own garden – and it’s safe to say it has been a process! In this video, I’m preparing the ground to seed a lawn and digging out the old washing line base, which turned out to be a big challenge.
Do we have the UK's smallest lawn? Addressing your comments!
Hi everyone, welcome back to my lawn renovation video series!
Today I’m measuring my lawn to see how big (small) it is. I’m also addressing comments about the methods we used to create the lawn and the type of grass we used. You don’t have to make it difficult for yourself!
I hope you find this video informative or perhaps just relaxing, I know these videos can be a great way to wind down after a long day!
