Organic Landscaping Solutions are Safer for You and the Environment
At Outdoor Craftsmen, we take a thoughtful and intentional approach to how our work impacts the environment. Whenever possible, we prioritize organic and earth-friendly solutions that support the long-term health of your landscape while also being safer for your family, pets, and the surrounding ecosystem.
Traditional chemical fertilizers are often high in concentrated salts, which can degrade soil structure over time and reduce the beneficial microbial activity that healthy lawns depend on. Instead, our full-season lawn care programs utilize organic based fertilizers and weed control products that not only address weed pressure and nutrient needs, but also actively improve soil biology. By fostering stronger microbial activity, these programs help create lawns that are more resilient requiring less water, exhibiting deeper, richer color, and experiencing fewer disease issues over time.
Beyond lawn care, we incorporate additional sustainable practices throughout our work. We produce our own leaf mold compost, which we use as a natural mulch and soil amendment to enhance soil structure and fertility. Our irrigation strategies focus on smart water management systems designed to reduce waste and deliver water more efficiently based on real landscape needs. When it comes to pest management, we favor natural and
integrated approaches that minimize harm to beneficial insects, recognizing the important role they play in a balanced ecosystem.
We are also actively transitioning our equipment fleet toward battery-powered tools, allowing us to maintain landscapes with reduced noise, emissions, and overall environmental impact. These practices are not add-ons they are a core part of how we design, build, and maintain landscapes that are both beautiful and responsible for years to come in Boulder, Colorado.

Organic Landscaping Services Do Good for Your Local Environment and Increase the Health of Your Property
Outdoor Craftsmen takes conservation seriously. Take a look at the many ways we strive to be earth-friendly when we perform our organic landscaping services in and around Boulder, Colorado.
Count on our company to use 100% organic fertilizer treatments on your lawn. We use Alpha One organic fertilizer for the following reasons:
- It has the highest organic-based matter content of any fertilizer on the market.
- It has a homogeneous nutrient balance.
- Its nutrients have their own natural time release, extending their availability to the plant.
- Unlike chemical fertilizers, it enables uniform leaf growth without lush growth syndrome.
- There are no manures, sludge, or waste materials in the fertilizer.
The benefits of using an organic-based fertilizer include:
- Safe for everyone, including you, your kids, and your pets.
- Your lawn will be healthier overall, reducing the potential for disease.
- If your lawn has pet urine burns, this fertilizer encourages regrowth in those areas.
- Thatched areas are organically degraded.
- Your grass will grow deeper roots, giving it more drought tolerance, which means you don't have to water as often.
- Its natural slow-release nutrient gives it an availability of up to 12 weeks, which means you'll need fewer applications.
- Amino acids increase your soil health by encouraging beneficial microbial growth.
Protect your local water resources and save money on water bills by making use of our smart water management plans, which include:
- Remote monitoring of your sprinkler system
- High-efficiency spray nozzles and rotor head nozzles
- Spray heads with a pressure-regulating function
- Rotor heads that create uniform water droplets that won't blow away like mist in the wind
- Smart sensors for detecting the temperature, amount of rain, and soil moisture
Part of our landscape maintenance plans includes leaf cleanup. We use the leaves for mulching and composting. In particular, we create a leaf mold compost, which is good for top dressing lawns, using in flower beds, adding organic matter to soils, and creating a rich, dark mulch. Leaf mold compost promotes healthy soil, making it resistant to brown patch and other diseases. It also helps conserve water.
If pests are bugging your landscape, we don't attack them with chemical sprays. Chemical sprays tend to kill everything, good and bad. Instead, we use biologic products, oils, and sprays, which selectively kill the harmful bugs.
Another aspect of our IPM is the use of predator insects. We introduce certain types of insects to your landscape that will eat the "bad" insects that are eating your plants.
We're building up our fleet of battery-operated lawnmowers and battery-operated small-engine tools, with the goal to be completely electric by 2025. Our eco-friendly technology reduces noise pollution and cuts down on carbon emissions. If you share our concern for the planet, we'd like to partner with you to be good stewards of your landscape and other areas in and around Boulder, Colorado.
