"It's nothing new! Ballantyne's has always been organic. And, there is no time like the present to fertilize your lawn organically. In 2008 we brought in the Bradfield Organics family of products to our store. They have great, simple fertilizer choices for your lawn and garden. Now is the time to apply corn gluten to keep nasty weed seeds from germinating in your lawn. As long as Forsythia is blooming, the next couple of weeks, you are good to go. After that use Bradfield Organics Luscious Lawn and Garden Fertilizer for a healthy, happy, kid and pet friendly lawn and garden. And who doesn't want that!
