Eco-Friendly Lawn Care in Acworth, GA
Lake-Country Lawn Care From a Local Family Business
Acworth calls itself the "Lake City," and with Lake Acworth and Lake Allatoona so close, lawns here need care that's effective and responsible. That's what Ecocare has offered since 2010. Our office is in East Cobb, so we're a local team, not a national chain sending crews from far away. Founder Alejandro Simmonds holds a degree in Environmental Horticulture and built Ecocare around reduced-impact, science-backed treatments. We keep Acworth lawns thick, green, and weed-free, for homes and commercial properties alike.
Our Lawn Care Services in Acworth
Fertilization and Weed Control
Our 8-application Turf Care Program combines fertilization with pre-emergent weed control, which stops weeds before they sprout, and post-emergent weed control, which treats the weeds already there. Each program is tailored to your grass, warm-season or cool-season.
Tree and Shrub Care
Acworth's wooded lots are full of trees and shrubs that need care too. We offer deep root fertilization plus insect and disease control to keep them healthy and growing strong.
Lawn Disease Control
Shade, humidity, and heavy summer dew can bring turf diseases like brown patch and dollar spot. We offer preventative treatments, plus curative treatments for problems that have already started.
Insect Control
We treat armyworms, grubs, and beetles before they damage your turf. Our insect treatments are pet-friendly.
Aeration
Core aeration pulls small plugs of soil so water, air, and nutrients can reach the roots. For Bermuda and zoysia lawns, we aerate from spring into summer, once the lawn is about 50% green.
Fall Fescue Overseeding
Fescue thins out every year, especially under trees. Our fall overseeding (September through November) pairs core aeration with premium fescue seed to fill bare spots and thicken your lawn.
Acworth Lawn Conditions and Seasonal Timing
Many Acworth homes sit on rolling, wooded lots. Tall pines and hardwoods mean more shade, more competition for water, and more leaf cover in fall. That's why tall fescue is so common here, alongside Bermuda and zoysia in the sunnier yards. On sloped lots, rain runs off the hard Georgia red clay before it soaks in, so roots go thirsty even after a storm.
With the lakes so close, we keep products where they belong: on your lawn. We apply carefully and only what your yard needs.
A typical Acworth year looks like this:
- Late winter to early spring: pre-emergent weed control goes down before crabgrass and other weeds sprout.
- Spring into summer: warm-season lawns are fed as they green up and aerated once they're about 50% green. Summer is when we watch for disease and insects.
- Fall: fescue lawns get aerated and overseeded from September through November, and we stay ahead of winter weeds.
We adjust every program to your grass type, your shade, and your slope.

My Acworth yard is shady. What grass works best?
Tall fescue handles shade better than Bermuda or zoysia. It thins out each summer, so we recommend fall overseeding from September through November to keep it full.
What's included in the Turf Care Program?
Eight applications a year that include fertilization, pre-emergent weed control, and post-emergent weed control, tailored for warm-season or cool-season grass.

Our insect control treatments are pet-friendly, and we use environmentally conscious, reduced-impact products across our services.
