I had high hopes with this company several years ago after speaking with the owner Todd Harrington who clearly had a wealth of knowledge regarding organic lawn care. I had been doing my own all organic treatments for about 3 years, but it was time consuming and I hoped to have the experts put down the right products at the right time. Unfortunately, putting all that knowledge into a business plan to serve customers did not happen in my case over several years of using them to treat my lawn. After the first year, I needed to call them each year (even after paying in advance for the year) to remind them that I was a customer. Service treatments were forgotten, and quite frankly my lawn looked lousy, far worse than it ever did when I applied organic treatments myself. Since terminating with them in the middle of last summer, I have returned to self treating my lawn and it is much improved this spring. Given they charge 2-3 times for their organic program what a standard lawn company would charge, it was a complete waste of money for me.

Thank you for sharing your comments in regards to your organic lawn care service from last spring 2019. We truly regret you received a less than perfect experience with us last year. Our highest mission as a local family owned business since 1987 is the organic care and service we provide for our valued clients. I am sorry that the soil test and lawn application that we provided at no cost to you were not satisfactory to rectify your complaint. We would welcome the opportunity for you to call us directly so that we may speak with you. Again, we value your feedback and will take it to heart as this only improves our business. We are appreciative for your past loyalty and we do hope there is an opportunity in the future to restore your faith in us. Warm regards,

I called to request a quote for fertilizing my lawn, trees and shrubs last year. I loved that it was the owner "Todd" who personally came out to meet with me and get a history of my property. He was extremely knowledgable and I have been very happy with my lawn, trees and shrubs care program (place looks amazing). The tick spraying worked great (they came 3 times last year!) and I feel much safer for my family and pets now that we use organics in our yard. I highly recommend using Harrington's Organic Land Care!

Lawn is looking better, just need more applications so that it looks even better.

General lawn care and tree service. Loved their down to earth approach. Never felt like they tried to "sell" us something the lawn didn't need.

They were not as responsive as I wanted them to be. They seemed to be a little sloppy with the job. They didn't explain what they were doing.

Todd arrived on time explained lawn services and several times commented on how "far out" I was . I would be charged travel time for lawn care. He took soil samples and told me it would be 2 weeks for the results. It has been 1 month and I have not heard back from him. He has my money but I have no results. Since time was important to begin Spring lawn care, I expected to hear back as promised. I assume he is just not interested in business this "far out".

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused but we are always willing to help. If you would like to discuss this please call our office anytime. Thanks, Harrington's Organic Land Care

Their technician Jay is very good. He told me with the organic service it takes about three years to see results. They aren't using the heavy poisons that others use, but it increases the ecology of the soil.
Description of Work
I signed up for the yearly premium service. They come out seven times, spray weeds and do seeding. They also put compost tea down.

Our experience with Harrington's has been a dream. From the start, they gave us a very realistic multi-year plan for our yard, sketching out how they would help our lawn detox from its dependence on nonorganic compounds. As they predicted, our annual costs have reduced from year to year as our lawn has become healthier and less dependent on our intervention. My neighbors often tell me that you wouldn't know our lawn is organic because it is the best looking lawn on the block. I say that that's how you know it's organic! Besides their expertise and professionalism, Harrington's is a fantastic company because of the quality of their people. Everyone I have worked with there--from Todd Harrington, to the very knowledgeable and helpful office staff, to the delightful people who come to service my lawn--has been great. I gave them a B for price because someone interested only in a bargain may be disappointed. But for me the quality of their work and the very helpful advice the specialists give when they visit the house make them well worth the price. I wouldn't work with anyone else.
Description of Work
For four years now, Harrington's has helped me convert my herbicide and pesticide dependent yard into a healthy organic lawn. The price above is approximately what I pay for spring to fall care of the lawn, primarily 6 applications of organic fertilizers. We sometimes pay extra for inspections of ornamental trees and shrubs and deeproot fertilization of those plants. We have occasionally exercised the options to have horticultural oil spray applied, control grubs, and have spot treatments done on particularly bad patches of weeds.
