TurfMutt

Hi, I’m Lucky, a.k.a TurfMutt. 
I live in Washington, DC and love my visits to Capitol Hill and walks along the Potomac.  There’s one thing about the city I don’t like – the hot, hard pavement.  Me and my ‘buds’ love yards or should I say, our turf. 

Yards and green spaces are more than just places to have fun and relax.  Did you also know that yards help battle some real, evil forces out there: carbon, runoff, dust and heat? Yards work hard to make our planet cooler and cleaner.   

And, the best way to make your green space work harder for the environment is to pick the right plants for where you live.  That way you don’t have to use too much water.

That’s why I’m TurfMutt, the Caped Crusader – Out to Save the Planet, One Yard at a Time. I’m on a mission to battle the forces of evil by sharing with you why yards are so important to keep our planet healthy and how we can make them work even harder. Here at TurfMutt.com, you can check out my work with kids at local schools and some nifty science projects that show why grass is so important to soaking up all that dirty air. I also love to blog about the latest and greatest on yards and what you need to know to keep them healthy, strong and working hard.

Follow me as I travel around the country, play with my best friends – Batch and Omega - and visit Capitol Hill from time to time: sharing my experiences through pictures, video and my Facebook Fan page. Or better yet, you can follow me on Twitter!
