Lawn to Meadow: Transition with a “Light Touch” (Spring Virtual Series)

Larry Weaner, FAPLD and Sara Weaner Cooper

No chemical use, no hauling, no digging, no smothering - no early-stage ugly phase. 

Sounds too good to be true.

Yet by gradually applying a series of light touch actions, you can achieve this organic transition without breaking your back, sparking ecological angst, or infuriating your neighbors. These actions can include timed mowing, selective height cutting, pH manipulation, and organic herbicide application.

In this session, Sara will discuss her lawn to meadow conversion (featured in The New York Times, 2024), including 2025 updates and plans, illustrating a homeowner’s perspective. Larry will explore case studies exemplifying the technical underpinnings behind this approach, from a landscape designer's perspective. This brains over brawn approach can transform the experience of creating residential meadows from daunting to uplifting.
