They are on time and great communicators after each service. We have a chemical free lawn and it looks great. We have a few dandilions from time to time, but overall happy. They also offer great products to purchase on their web site. The cost for the service is about 2-3 times more than what the bigger chemical lawn service charges.

This is the first year we've used them because we have a dog. They've come and done the first application, to my knowledge. We paid up front for all the lawn treatments; I think we got ... the total for everything, we paid it was a little like $380-something. My yard looks really nice, so I guess they're doing a very good job. My husband - we have a pet, so he wanted to go with Organic.

we have had good nature for 2 years now. For the positive, they have always been on time and done the work that was promised. They do leave feedback after they have been here and with interesting information. The first year our lawn looked ok. This year is the second go around and unfortunately our lawn has looked the worst that it has in recent times. The weeds are out of control and with brown spot (fungus). These were not noted in the last application despite going on the last couple of months. Upon alerting them I did hear in short order from the owner and was looked at. I'm not sure if this is the issue of organic vs nonorganic but the results have been disappointing.

This is the 3rd year we are using Good Nature. We have two small children who are in the yard a lot and did not want them exposed to lawn chemicals. The results are pretty good. Of course, we get some dandelions here and there, but its chemical free and the grass is getting healthier and healthier every year.

Good Nature has treated our lawn for the past four years. We like the organic aspect because we have several dogs roaming the yard. Our lawn stacks up to any of the lawns around here that use the standard toxic treatments. I recommend Good Nature to everyone.

This is a great company. Every lawn care treatment is adjusted for my lawn, not the standard lawns. Each treatment is explained, every detail in type on the service slip. Suggestions and reasons for treatment given. They even provide photo cards of particular problems and treatment suggestions. This fall finished my second year with them. I am very pleased. I grow vegetables organically in raised beds and did not wish to be eating lawn chemicals (the yard is not very big). The lawn is green and basically healthy. They even suggest mowing height. They do a wonderful job and I frequently suggest them to like minded friends.

I was very unhappy with them. My backyards have never looked worse. My front yard looked so much better before I used them. I have weeds, thistles, and violets in my backyard. It looks awful and uncared for. I spent too much on it for it to look that way. I've been using them for two years now and I will not use them next year. I like the fact that it is organic because I have a puppy and the puppy has stayed healthy throughout their service. The lawn, however, has truly suffered. I never know when they are coming.

Response from Good Nature Organic Lawn Care - Columbus
[Member Info Removed], Thank you for the feedback and we are sorry to hear that the lawn is not looking the way you had hoped. Weather-wise, this has been a very favorable year for some of the tougher perennial weeds you have (wild violet, plantain, and dandelion). With that being said, there are options available to help reduce those further. We have left you some information on those treatments on our past visits this year. The fertilizer program you are on will help continuously build the soil, but will not dramatically affect the weeds. Unfortunately, weeds may need a little extra effort, based on what your tolerance of those said weeds would be. All those options are included in the notes from your technician, but of course we realize that not all of that information may be read. As you may remember from last year. Some of the issues you have had in the beds with the weeds (which we do not handle in our service), we are willing to do what it takes to try and make things right. We will always do our best to set forth the correct expectations for the lawn. Our turfgrass will always take a beating in the summer months, and that is when weeds will happy both in your beds and in your lawn. Unfortunately, summer is the worst time to treat for weeds. Our ultimate goal is for you to be happy with the lawn, and I apologize that we may be falling short of that. I have left you a couple messages to try and set up a time to talk and I will plan on following up. Fall (right now), is when we can make an impact on the weeds and the soil. I would love the opportunity to discuss some of the information we have left and what we can do to help with all of your concerns. As for the notice of when we are to come out. We have always offered to contact our customers the day prior to service. We have not had you down as requesting us to do so, so that is why you do not receive that notification. It is brought up at the time you sign up, but can always be added later as needed. I will add that to the account so that you will always get a call the day before any visit takes place. Please do not hesitate to contact me and I look forward to connecting with you soon. We sincerely appreciate your business. Thank you, Matt Cellura Good Nature Organic Lawn Care - Columbus Manager 614-806-4044 mattc@whygoodnature.com

Every season they come. It's an organic company so it's not effective. Altogether, they cannot control the weed. The weed is bad. Organic method is never going to work. They had to use the conventional method on top of that. With the price, I wasn't too happy. Their responsiveness is good. They don't come right away. They come whenever they're scheduled to come within their time frame. The garlic they used to control the mosquitoes is not working because it's bad as ever. I prefer the organic way.
Description of Work: For lawn service, I use Good Nature. I use them for the flea and mosquito control. They're going to do another spray in August for the flea and grub control.

Response from Good Nature Organic Lawn Care - Columbus
Hello [member name removed], Thanks so much for your business and candid feedback. I'm sorry that you're not happy with the way things are working. The mosquito suppression should reduce the mosquitoes in the area we spray by about 70% and should last (depending on rainfall) for about 3 weeks. If you're interested in some Do It Yourself mosquito repellent products, we offer a variety online at [hyperlink removed]. Hope that helps. As for the weeds, it is true that our organic approach doesn't "kill" weeds the way that chemicals do, but it can do a pretty good job of suppressing weeds like dandelions. I notice that you're signed up for our spot chemical treatment plan where we'll spot treat your weeds with a chemical in the spring and fall. That should help, again, since we're not covering your entire lawn, we'll probably miss some, but it should keep the weeds from looking too bad. If you really want a 100% weed free lawn, you would be better off going with a traditional chemical company - we hope you can tolerate a few though and stick with us! Finally, mowing high and seeding regularly (now is a great time of year to seed) will help prevent weeds from getting established. That's the backbone of good organic weed prevention. We really appreciate your business. Please don't hesitate to contact me if there is anything you'd like to discuss. Thanks! Alec McClennan Founder [email removed] 614-885-5296

First, they were more than prompt, calling to say they could arrive a week before our expected date. However, we were having mulch delivered, and we wanted to get that spread before they could do work. They were completely understanding, and they set a new date. They arrived as expected. The lawn care guy was professional, polite, and very particular; he wanted to make absolutely sure that they would not damage invisible fence/irrigation lines. Within two weeks, we had new grass; within four weeks, we absolutely could not believe the change in our lawn! Where there had been bald spots, dead grass, and moss, there was now a beautiful, lush lawn. Given that we are in the shade, we didn't believe it was possible. What we most appreciated about this company was that they were completely upfront and honest with us. They told us from the get go that, given the amount of shade we had, they would not be able to reseed once and our lawn would be great; we were warned that reseeding might have to happen every year. We truly appreciated their honesty. After spending close to $800 with another company who merely scattered seed and covered it with hay (and then when it didn't grow, blamed us for not watering it enough!), this company was a joy. We could not recommend them more highly!
Description of Work: Our lawn was patchy at best. We had a lot of moss and mud instead of grass (we are in a very shady area). They came out and used a liquid aeration on the lawn, and then reseeded it using a machine that punched the seed into the soil. Around our invisible fence line and irrigation system lines, they used an individual seeder so as to not damage the lines.

We have a 2 year old (that only wants to be outside...rolling in the grass), so the safety of the products we place on our yard was important to us. The products are organic/very safe and the company was very knowledgeable and nice... we went for it. I wasn't sure what the products would actually do for our yard, and I have to say, I am impressed. Our yard was not in the best shape, and the weeds have all but disappeared and the grass itself is looking quite lush!

First let me start by saying that my yard has issues. It's had issues since we moved in 8 years ago. I've used competitors that use chemicals and Good Nature. I have to admit that I feel better that there aren't chemicals applied to my yard every four to six weeks, but at the same time, my yard doesn't look a whole lot better, in fact, in some cases, it looks worse. I'm not a fan of weeds or anything else other than grass in my lawn. They only treat for weeds when you ask for it. That being said, when they use their recede tea, it works awesomely well. Unfortunately, they only use this when you ask for it and they charge almost 1.5x the cost of just a normal yard treatment. To me, keeping weeds away should be part of the deal with lawn care. I understand the whole bio-diversity thing and I also understand that my yard, as stated before, has issues where it is prone to having weeds since my grass is somewhat thin, but honestly, when I used other companies that used chemicals I had many fewer "things" in my yard than just grass because they treated for them. My yard is also compacted... I've had liquid aeration as well as traditional aeration done by them a couple times and yet, I don't know if it's any better or if it's even possible to get a whole lot better. They keep suggesting slice seeding and/or a whole yard renovation, but with what I've been paying to just maintain my yard and not seeing a real noticeable improvement, I'm a little hesitant to take them up on that for fear of being disappointed and spending a whole lot more money. Their service people are very polite, responsive and know their stuff, but the actual results, as far as my yard is concerned, have been somewhat short of my expectations, but at least it's chemical free!

I was excited to use them because I wanted to go to the Organic treatments. I have little doggies and wanedt it to be safer. I called them about 6 weeks ago to come out and give me a quote. The bad service started then. I called and spoke to Denise at the main office she said they could not do a quote over the phone. So some one would come out. No one came out or called. Like 2 weeks later Matt showed up randomly and gave us a very detailed quote, very EXPENSIVE $200 for one treatment. I have a big yard but really? He was very knowledgable and gave me a lot of information. I was excited again good lets do this, my yard needed help, new sod and it was starting to look yellow. Even though he was soooo expensive I thought ok I will give it a try. Then I called to schedule a treatment, again I talked to Denise. She said I will try and schedule you" I'll call you back." Again no phone call, no one out to help me with my lawn. I even called Matt left a message to see if they could come out. No return calls. I gave up found another provider on here. Bio- Green!!! I called BIO-GREEN yesterday, they were here this morning!!!! And for half the price. They are natural, organic as well. I DO NOT RECOMMEND GOOD NATURE. Someone needs to figure out how to run their business.

I am very sorry for the poor experience you had with us trying to get started with our service. We take full responsibility for not providing you with a quote in a timely manner and getting you scheduled for services as quickly as we should have. As for the price, we offer an organic program. It is a little more expensive than other services, especially on really large lawns like yours. If you want to maintain your lawn without chemicals, our unique approach will give you the best chance to avoid chemicals all together. Unfortunately, it is a little more expensive than chemical or “organic-based” competitors, especially on larger lawns like yours because the premium materials that we use are more expensive. Finally, thank you for your interest in going organic and if we can ever be of service in the future please don’t hesitate to contact us, we’ll do a much better job. Thanks!

They have done one tree and it was fine. We got the guy's name and he did the treatment. He's here for 10-15 minutes then he left. He's great. I would recommend them. Like I said we just started with them and done only one treatment. The first treatment was double; they do two treatments together so it's like 95 dollars. They're coming tomorrow for the trees and shrubs. They called us before they came out so that's good. UPDATE 8/15/14 We have been using Good Nature since April 2014 and have no problems. They always call the afternoon before they come out. One of our neighbors have also started using them after see the good job they have done on our lawn.

Matt is to call me next week when we have the approiate weather for the solution for my problem.
Description of Work: Last week I had written a review for this provider that was very unflattering. I was most upset over their inability to provide the service I needed. Since then, I have spoken to Matt, and he was won me over with his willingness to make me happy. He had to make several attempts to reach me, but he continued to try. Matt has agreed to help me with my problem yard issues. Any organization that works as hard as Matt did to " make things right" for me deserves a second chance. I am very impressed with the way Matt handled my situation and would recommend this company in the future.
