It is my intention to give the readers a better understanding of what we do to maintain The Farms Country Club's 18 hole championship golf course and grounds.

Aerifying of Greens Began This Morning!

Greens aerification is in full swing this morning. The course will be closed today and tomorrow so we can complete the job as quickly as possible. The faster we get it done, the more rapid the healing process. The use of 3/8th’s inch tines, instead of 1/2 inch, will also help the holes close quicker.
I addition, we are aerifying the approaches and weak spots in fairways. Thin turf in all areas will be overseeded.
I will keep you updated on our progress.
