Grass Guardians is a community initiative that brings volunteers, local businesses, and community partners together to provide lawn care assistance to residents who may have difficulty maintaining their lawns due to age, mobility challenges, health circumstances, or other barriers.

Grass Guardians is intended to support local residents who may be unable to maintain their lawn independently due to circumstances such as age, disability, health concerns, or financial hardship. Anyone may submit a nomination, including individuals nominating themselves or someone else.

Complete the Nominate Someone form on this page and provide information about the person and their lawn care needs. Our team will review the submission and contact you if additional information is required.

Depending on volunteer availability and the needs of each property, services may include lawn mowing, trimming and edging, and basic yard clean-up.
