Besides being beautiful, mosses provide mental and physical health benefits and improve the environment.

Mosses may sequester up to ten times more carbon dioxide than trees, making them an antidote to climate change. Mosses release phytoncides, a natural antimicrobial substance that can boost immune function. Mosses are a natural air filter, capturing allergens and pollutants. The sight, touch, and smell of mosses can promote relaxation while reducing stress and anxiety.

Once established, a moss lawn has advantages over turf grass - no mowing, no fertilizing, no pesticides, no herbicides, and little weeding and watering. They do require debris removal with a broom, leaf blower or gentle raking. Mosses can grow on poor soil and provide erosion control. They are resilient, tolerating dry conditions and reviving quickly. Moss lawns retain a green color year-round and grow well where grasses don't. They can replace the negative environmental footprint of a grass lawn while providing a tranquil setting that enhances the beauty of your property.
