I f y ou J TA 5 Clippings | Issue 1 • 2023 www.njturfgrass.org G RE E N E X PO 2 A B SU CCE SS I made it a point to ask as many people as possible “what does Expo mean to you?” at this year’s confer- ence December 6-8 at the Borgata Hotel in Atlantic City. Though we are primarily an education focused show, I was surprised - and delighted - to hear so many diverse opinions on attendees’ experiences. Some of the more exciting comments were from the group that enjoyed the Grass Roots Mix ‘n Mingle on Wednesday night, followed by the GCSANJ So- cial… and then a wide variety of activities that were described to me with smiles on faces. Short road trips to favorite hangouts were described, group outings to Hard Rock and Ocean casinos were popular, and just hanging out at Borgata with friends and colleagues to discuss the business we all share were all a part of the collective group experience. And, to the hearty group that watched the sun rise near the Irish Pub, I congratulate you on your staying power! Social experiences are a big part of Expo, and the planning committee is always pleased to hear that our attendees make full use of the many opportuni- ties available to them. We love to see so many people at our Trade Show… not just at the grand opening (sponsored once again by our Syngenta friends) but throughout the evening until closing time. Free bev- erages were sponsored by Labar Golf Renovations during both sessions of the trade show, and dinner and lunch were provided with the help of BASF as well as SavATree/Tree Tech. Tuesday lunch was supported by long-time sponsors Storr Tractor and Turf Equipment and Supply, and other companies providing important sponsor- ship including Envu and Aquatrols. NJTA thanks our many friends who help make our show so much fun - without them we would not be able to provide the show highlights outlined in this report! Chris Carson, Expo Chairman But Expo is much more than a chance to unwind after a difficult season of turf management. It’s about pro- viding cutting edge science and information while also offering the credits needed to maintain our professional licenses. Expo 2022 delivered these in spades: many of the best turfgrass professors in the country presented at our show, complementing our world-class Rutgers faculty to make our education offerings the very best they can be. I was pleased to hear from so many of you that the information obtained during these three days of the conference would be immediately used in your businesses to the benefit of your customers and golfers. Behind the scenes, important meetings take place at Expo. NJTA and the Sports Field Managers Association of NJ each held strategic planning sessions, GCSANJ held its annual Board meeting/introduction session to new board members, and the Center for Turfgrass Sci- ence at Rutgers had its annual breakfast where allied as- sociations provided information and input on their turf and landscape disciplines and the Rutgers Dean, USGA Green Section Director and others updated the state of funding and research in our fields. Interviews were filmed for posterity, to be added soon to the Rutgers and NJTA websites, representatives of Allied Associations gathered at lunch to discuss areas of mutual concern, and a successful Women in Turf luncheon was held as well, led by Nicole Sherry of the Baltimore Orioles and sponsored by Harrell’s and Pure Seed. Expo delivered an important milestone this year, with a joint session that detailed the excellence of the Rutgers turfgrass breeding program and that honored and cele- brated the career of Dr. Bill Meyer. Bill’s breeding work has been instrumental in contributing to the astonishing growth of the Rutgers Center for Turfgrass Science, and it was great to be able to acknowledge that in front of a packed auditorium that included his extended family, flown in from around the country. Bill very much ap- preciated the lively and prolonged standing ovation that was offered at the end of his poignant talk. His tears were real; his heart was full. Continued on next page...

It was a great show, filled with education, fun and the exchange of practical ideas that helped at- tendees put a cap on a tough year and prepare for the next. Your Expo Committee is already at work planning for next year’s show, and we will be incorporating the many comments, ideas and suggestions that you were kind enough to offer to me and to other NJTA Board members.

Shaun Barry Chairman, Rutgers Turfgrass Research Golf Classic , is the date on your calendar that I hope M ay you mark it off for the Rutgers Turfgrass Research Golf Classic. It is held at Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club in Bedminster, NJ. They have 3 golf courses and all three courses are used because this event usually draws between 360 and over 400 golfers every year. Players come from as far away as California, Oregon, and Canada. Every part of the turfgrass industry is rep- resented and you will meet old friends or easily make new friends. If you are interested in attending and supporting this event, please reach out to Cece Peabody at the NJTA, and she will answer any of your questions and help with registration. Her e-mail address is execdirector@ njturfgrass.org, and she can be reached at (973) 812- 6467. PS. The Golf Classic Brochure is also inside this issue so you can download, complete, and send or you can also register online to golf and/or to sponsor at: www.njturfgrass.org. We look forward to seeing you there! Many Thanks to the 2022 Premier sponsors! GOLF CLA SSI C WRA P UP As we start planning our schedules for 2023, our normal course of action is to identify those “can’t miss” events. Are there weddings, reunions, vacations and other fam- ily events upcoming that everyone wants to attend? This is where most start people when they populate their calendars and that makes most the sense. If you have any connec- tion with the r s turfgass industry, I would recommend adding the Ru Golf Classic to that list each year. Tu This event is organized by the NJ Turfgrass Foundation and is celebrating its 27th anniversary. The Classic is ab- solutely the largest and most successful fundraiser for turfgrass research in the world. r ass Re se ar ch r fg There are many reasons for this success. It started with Dr. Bruce Clarke’s involvement. When Dr. Bill Meyer joined the staff at Rutgers he enthusiastically got involved with the Golf Classic. Bruce and Bill’s fundraising efforts inspired all of the scientists at the Center for Turfgrass Science to add their support. Dr. Jim Murphy, Dr. Stacy Bonos, and Dr. Matt Elmore have embraced the oppor- tunity to continue the efforts of Bill and Bruce since their retirement. Both Bill and Bruce will continue to support the Golf Classic in anyway needed. If you are not familiar with the Golf Classic, you might ask why Rutgers would extend such support for a NJT Foundation event. The answer is quite simple. The funds raised go into the Foundation’s corpus and ev- ery dollar in that corpus will go to support the Rutgers Center for Turfgrass Science (CTS). Everyone on the Golf Classic committee is donating their time and ex- pertise. Not even a single dollar goes anywhere but to the Foundation which will then go to Rutgers in sup- port of its industry leading research facilities. 8 Clippings | Issue 1 • 2023 www.njturfgrass.org t g e 1 2 0 2 3 Shaun Barry Chairman, Rutgers Turfgrass Research Golf Classic people had never played there. Fiddler’s would offer a first class experience and it would be expected that they would charge more for this experience. It may have been done with trepidation but eventually everyone agreed. Fast forward to May 4, 2020, and the visionaries who started this event would never have believed what has grown from the seeds they planted. The Rutgers Turfgrass Research Clas- sic is in a class of its own. No other Turfgrass Fundraiser has enjoyed the support from all facets of the industry that this event has received. Even during some tough economic years the industry support did not wane. I believe that there are several reasons for this success. It starts with the scientists at Rutgers. Through their research and hard work they have become known as the best in the world. Every- one knows Drs. Bruce Clarke, Bill Meyer, Stacy Bonos, Jim Murphy, Bingru Huang, Matt Elmore, Albrecht Koppenhofer and also Rich Buckley and they are supported by many of the industry’s future leaders. All of these scientists volunteer and are fully committed to doing whatever they need to do to sup- port the Classic because they know the dollars raised will only ever be used by Rutgers. I have enjoyed being the Chair of this event for many years and thank my Co-Chair Dr. Karen Plumley for her commitment to make this a successful event. One of the other main reasons for the success is the strong re- lationship between these scientists and the industry. Rutgers’s scientists are always ready to take your phone call to help you with a problem. The best way that you can return their help is to support the Classic. Th e B ir of a CLA SSI C Editor’s Note: As we look forward to the 2023 Rutgers Turfgrass Research Golf Classic, we have to reach back into the Clippings Vault to return to Shaun’s great article about the genesis of the Golf Classic. In 1996 several members of the NJTA decided they needed to find a way to raise money to support the needs and goals of the Rutgers Turfgrass Program. The NJTA had been started in 1970 with the sole purpose of supporting the program. What- ever funds were raised were to be held until money was needed within the program. That Mission Statement has not changed since the day it was created. In that 1996 meeting, several proposals were put forth. Even though there were people on this committee from many seg- ments of the industry, the conversations eventually led to do- ing something with golf. One proposal was to run a raffle with the winner receiving tickets to a PGA Tour Golf Tournament. This would raise some money, but the committee had an even- tual goal of $10,000. It was decided that the raffle would never get them to their goal. They decided it had to be a golf tourna- ment. Something like this would attract sponsors and would be viable for at least 10 years. Having chosen the vehicle for their fundraising they now had to settle on the details. Most of the non-golf members were concerned about charging too much while the golf members were concerned about charging too little. They knew that starting at a low cost would set the floor low and that would make it hard to move up. They wanted a premium location that would attract golfers. They chose Fiddler’s Elbow Coun- try Club in Bedminster, NJ, because it was private and most A GAME-CHANGING DMI THAT BRINGS TURF SAFETY INTO THE MODERN ERA Introducing Maxtima® fungicide, an advanced new turf-safe DMI that can be sprayed anywhere on your course for unrivaled broad- spectrum disease control.

As an integral part of the Rutgers Turfgrass Classic and a partner event at the Rutgers Turfgrass Field Days, the Silent Auction provides attendees a chance for attendees to purchase from a plethora of options of donated products with the goal to raise funding to help support turf- grass research in New Jersey. Whether it is a golf round, a piece of signed sports memorabilia, discounted chemical prod- ucts, or even a stack of lottery scratch-offs, those dollars help fund research, an economic survey, scholarships, and grants. Through the last two years, the silent auction at both events has raised over $44,500 for the Rutgers Center for Turfgrass Research. The Role Donations Play in the Silent Auction Planning The planning for the silent auction starts months before the Rutgers Turfgrass Classic in the Spring and the Rutgers Turfgrass Field Days in the Summer. Members of the committee reach out to ven- dor representatives, NJTA Members, and merchandise sales companies to solicit dona- tions for items to be auctioned off. The target for auction items is to be of a variety that ev- ery person who visits can find something that they would be likely to purchase. As items are donated, information about the items is collected, recommended starting prices are established, and a fair price for the item to be bought is established. This process takes several months including collecting and storing the do- nated products. Over the last several years, the committee has sought to provide exciting items to bid for as well as circulat- ing unique items with each event. The Day of the Auction The behind-the-scenes preparation before each auc- tion is critical to collecting bids and getting products to the winners. The items are organized by type, bid sheets are draft- ed, bidders are registered and assigned numbers, and lastly, the bidding begins! Throughout the events, visitors will stop by review the item and bid in hopes of winning. After the auction closes, winners can take their items home or setup delivery if necessary.

Looking for an opportunity to play an exclu- sive private golf club with your friends? Bid on a foursome. If you are in the market to buy a fungicide product at a dis- counted price, the silent auction will note on the invoice the savings that you made with your silent auction purchase. Time for a vacation? Bid on one of the several trips that are up for auction including wineries, golf, and beach trips. The Future of the Silent Auction Bidding on items at the on-site auction will always be an integral part of those events and the Silent Auction Com- mittee is working on ways to increase the reach of the silent auction and provide attendees with additional great items as well as helping get those items to the auction.

As Dr. Jim Murphy stated in his presentation, “Dr. Meyer’s impact on the program is nothing short of phenomenal.” The New Jersey Turfgrass Association Expo Committee planned an afternoon gener- al session full of turfgrass breeding education interwoven with well wishes and memories celebrating the legacy of Dr. Meyer. The slate of speakers for the session were all mem- bers of the turfgrass breeding industry who have worked with Meyer through his twenty-six years at Rutgers, many of which cited him as a more than colleague, but as a mentor and a friend. Growing the First Generation in Holland – Pieter den Haan, Den Haan Zaden Leading off the session was the turfgrass breeding scientist, Pieter den Haan of Den Haan Zaden, a seed collector in Hol- land who worked closely with Dr. Meyer collecting samples in Europe. As his talk was titled, Pieter den Haan is the first step in the development process of breeding new turfgrasses, starting with collecting seed samples from around the world and identifying ecotypes. Through this collecting, the turf- grass breeding program can utilize new genetic material for new turfgrass varieties. Careful selection of plants while traveling around Europe, Den Haan has meticulously curated and collected ecotypes with the hopes that those samples will develop candidates for turfgrass breeding. When collecting samples in the field, he dries the samples, collects notes and weighs them for specifics. Over the lasts seventy-five years, he has collected over 75,000 samples which are carefully stored in a climate- controlled archive with samples collected in the Mid-90’s still producing viable material. During those years, Dr. Mey- er visited almost every year to review and collaborate with the sample collection to bring back new genetic material to Rutgers. In conclusion for his talk, Pieter wrapped up his talk by speaking directly to Dr. Meyer, “We started our collabora- tion 25 years ago and throughout this time we have had a very good working relationship together, but our relationship quickly developed beyond working together. The friendship between you Bill and our family has become very close.” As he spoke, a slide showcasing an early photo with Pieter’s family and another showing the group years later. “You saw our children growing up and they still have very good www.njturfgrass.org B Pr Donovan Maguigan, Springdale Golf Club Editor, Clippings contact with you. They love listening to your stories because you have a lot of stories,” he shared as well as remarks about two-way learning where his children learned of turfgrass, and Dr. Meyer learned Dutch from them. He closed his talk with, “Today, I told you something about grass seeds, however, the special seeds that we planted in our friendship were the best!” Selecting, Improving, and Deciding – Reducing Weeds and Disease via Breeding Low-input Turfgrasses for Cold Cli- mates – Dr. Eric Watkins, Univ. of Minnesota With a focal point of his research being the importance of turf- grass selection, turfgrass professor at the University of Min- nesota, Dr. Eric Watkins spoke on his research targeting that selection. He stressed the importance of selection as it helps reduce inputs and weed pressure, an aspect of turfgrass man- agement that is often underutilized. His presentation focused on his work in two areas; cold tolerance and providing easy access information to turfgrass quality data to make better in- formed selections. As a researcher in Minnesota, turfgrass selection focuses in part on cold tolerance due to the hard frigid winters, as Dr. Watkins said, “You need the grass to survive the winter.” A hurdle in turfgrass selection for cold tolerance is that little is known about winter stress mechanisms due to the multitude of factors including differences in microenvironments, collecting data, controlled environment setup, and costs with research. To overcome that hurdle, Dr. Watkins has been working with superintendents and engineers outside of turf to improve data collection, providing real-time cloud-based information to support cold tolerance research. Working with the golf course superintendent, the university provides specific instructions for setup of a data node, to which they have access to through the study. These nodes act as emote sensors for monitoring data on a constant basis including alerts for conditions that may be detrimental to the turfgrass. Starting with three greens in 2019 and expanding to over seventy greens in 2022, provid- ing 20 million data packets stored in the cloud. Shifting from the golf course side of the turfgrass to home- owners, Dr. Watkins has also been working on ways to get bet- ter turfgrass selection data to customers who are buying seed off the shelf. NTEP results provides the best data for making those selections, but it can be overwhelming for homeowners to search for information on those results. Working with data specialists and surveys, a web applicant system with three tiers for accessing the data was developed for customers, profes- sionals, and advanced research. This setup is currently limited to fine fescue with plans to expand.

As a past PhD student in Plant Biology at Rutgers, Dr. Eric Watkins studied and worked under Dr. Meyer and he cited two major things that he took away from his time at Rutgers: the importance of new cultivars and the “the value of collaboration” working together with others at the Center for Turfgrass Science. Dr. Watkins shared that he is still close with Dr. Meyer, including inviting him to his wedding in Wis- consin. He concluded with “Thank you for your many years of service to Rutgers and thank you for all that you have done.” Supply Chain Dynamics: From Rutgers to the Farm to your Business – KJ Griepentrog, Jersey Seed Now that the varieties have been developed and per- fected, how does the seed from Rutgers end up on golf cours- es, home lawns, and sports fields? KJ Griepentrog of Jersey Seed provided insight into the production process. The seed house will contact Rutgers for a particular variety, such as GLR resistant tall fescue, as an example. After determining a specific variety, the seed company will purchase 5-8 pounds of seed, which will then be utilized to create thousands of pounds of seed for production. The process for developing an amount of seed that large can take anywhere from 5-8 years before being available for public to purchase. B Pr Donovan Maguigan, Springdale Golf Club Editor, Clippings Aside from the lengthy time to produce the seed, KJ Grie- pentrog stated that advancements in seed development might potentially be outdated by the time the seed is released. As new varieties are developed with improved resistance or if a new disease may have emerged in turfgrass or tastes in color and texture may evolve, the marketable life span for that seed is hard to determine, sometimes as short at five years or possibly beyond fifteen years. KJ Griepentrog wrapped up his presentation by sharing his experiences working with Dr. Meyer. Jersey Seed has been a long partner with Rutgers University. In addition to KJ Griepentrog himself working with the program, he cited that his father worked with Dr. Meyer for over thirty years. The Importance of the Rutgers Turfgrass Breeding Program to the Center for Turfgrass Science – Dr. Jim Murphy, CTS Director, Rutgers University For the latter half of the session, the presentations from members of the Rutgers University Center for Turf- grass Science took the stage, led by the new director, Dr. Jim Murphy. In outlining the history and mission of the cen- ter, Dr. Murphy stressed “the vast importance of turfgrass breeding” of the program and connectively, the work of Dr. Meyer.

In rapidly increasing the resources provided by the licensing fees, he helped place Rutgers at the forefront of turf- grass research. Stat- ing that his legacy will be impactful for decades and beyond at Rutgers. The program now stands as the largest turfgrass re- search program at a university level in the world. The Future of Turfgrass Breeding – Dr. Stacy Bonos, Rutgers University With Dr. Murphy looking back at the history of the program, Dr. Stacy Bonos shared with attendees the future of turfgrass breeding at Rutgers. Sharing one of the goals in 1961, Dr. Bonos quoted, “Develop improved pest and stress tolerant grasses with improved seed yield throughout the world,” which she said helped drive the success of the problem through chal- lenges faced in pest and environmental stresses on turfgrass. Successfully facing challenges such as gray leaf spot in ryegrass or summer in the past, the breeding program looks forward to the future seeking to address those challenges. Citing the increase in weather extremes with tempera- tures and rainfall including warmer summers, Dr. Bonos shared that future breeding is looking towards facing those weather challenges, specifically heat tolerance and drought tolerance in turfgrass. A new key to developing more resilient turfgrasses is rooted in using machined learning and digital data collec- tion that are reshaping turfgrass development. In the past, the computer power necessary to process the genomes for the turf crashed computers due to the sheer amount of data to be tabulat- ed. With advances in machined learning, computer models are better suited to handle the genetic data while also combing with data from remote sensing and genotype technology that utilizes quantitative genetics tied together with statistical analysis. The turfgrass breeding program is also focusing on micro-biomes and studying how the synergistic effect between fungal and bac- terial impact on germination rates. After working with Dr. Meyer for over twenty-five years, Dr. Bonos thanked Dr. Meyer for his mentorship, sharing “I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for him.” B Pr My Career in Turfgrass Development – Dr. Bill Meyer, Rutgers University As Pieter den Haan shared at the end of his remarks with, “Bill, this is your day,” Dr. Bill Meyer took the podium to share his career and experiences both before and during his tenure at Rutgers. Through a collection of photos slides and turfgrass data, Dr. Meyer walked the group through his career in turfgrass breeding, citing that it was a “a really fun career,” and a “broad experience.” The son of a golf course superintendent and a gradu- ate of the University of Illinois, Dr. Meyer’s career began not in turf fields in the United State, but with soybeans in India. Dodging water buffalos on his motorcycle, he spends a year working on a concrete floor, windows that allowed the birds in, and rats on the ceiling while developing two research pa- pers. Despite the obstacles, Dr. Meyer considers it the high- light of his academic career. Dr. Meyer’s entry to Rutgers took a few years as Dr. Funk repeatedly tried to recruit him to come work in New Jersey. In one instance of Dr. Funk’s persistence, he joined Dr. Meyer for a round of golf while both snuck away from a turfgrass conference. Despite not playing golf or having clubs, Dr. Reed accompanied Dr. Meyer through his round, offering to rake bunkers for him, and as Dr. Meyer recalled, “There were a lot!” While at Rutgers, Dr. Meyer recounted that light- ning strikes, both literally in one instance, then figuratively, struck the turfgrass research field. The actual lightning strike occurred one afternoon on the fields, leaving a noticeable mark on the turf, while the figurative lightning strike was the discovery of gray leaf spot resistant ryegrass. In a humorous anecdote on the beauty in the eye of the beholder, Dr. Meyer vividly recalled Dr. Bruce Clarke’s fascination at a beautiful turfgrass disease attacking a plot of turfgrass, much to Dr. Meyer’s displeasure of losing turfgrass. Dr. Meyer closed his remarks with thanks to those who had worked with him through the industry, recounting trips looking for plants in Europe, his research students, as well as sharing photos of his large growing family. He shared that he has been able to see seed propagating through the turf- grass industry over a long career, but also the growth of his family, children, and grandchildren. www.njturfgrass.org Clippings | Issue 1 • 2023 14 c a p h e t g e r r f g r a s s r e e d i n g o g r a m s s i o n h e r e e n x p o Supporting Rutgers turfgrass research SEEDS & SCIENCE BY DESIGN Building on what we have created over the last century, we look forward to what is ahead, and helping your business grow.

Use a quality lubricant specifically designed for use in pumps and valves that can withstand freezing temperatures; this will ensure that these components remain operating correctly once spring arrives. Make sure that all components are properly lubri- cated before putting them away for storage; this will help prevent damage due to corrosion while they are in storage and allow them to perform optimally come springtime. e ck e ct ion s H ose Con Ch Checking hose connections is also important when prep- ping your spray equipment for winter storage. Check each connection point on hoses throughout the entire system – from tank connections to nozzle connections – look- ing closely at threads and seals to make sure they are not cracked or broken. Any signs of wear should be addressed immediately by replacing hoses as necessary; otherwise, you could risk serious damage due to freezing tempera- tures during storage which could lead to costly repairs down the road. St or ag Keep equipment in a place where it will be protected from the elements. A dry space such as a storage building or shed is ideal, but if it must be stored outside, be sure to keep it tightly covered with a tarp. It is best to store re- movable parts like spray guns, nozzles, and strainers in- doors or in a warm area. Winterizing your spray equipment is essential for ensur- ing its continued performance once spring arrives again! It’s worth it and you’ll thank yourself later! As the temperatures drop and winter approaches, it’s time to winterize your spray equipment. Taking the steps now to ensure that your spray equipment is ready for winter will help you avoid costly repairs and downtime when you’re ready to get back in the field. Whether you are an LC owner, technician or service manager, here are some helpful tips on how to winterize your spray equipment. y A t s & D ll Par Cle an The most important step in preparing your spray equip- ment for the cold months is cleaning and drying all parts thoroughly to remove any debris or dirt that has collected on the hoses, nozzles, tanks, and other components of your system. This includes pressure washing all parts of the system with water along with using a degreasing cleaner if needed. Once you have completed this step, make sure that all parts are dried completely before moving on to storage. If you plan to store the equipment inside a build- ing or shed for the winter season, you will also want to inspect for any signs of rust or corrosion which should be addressed before storing away. Y ou r Sys t Flu sh After cleaning the outside of your spray equipment away, the next step is to flush out the system. This helps remove any residue or build-up left inside of your system, so that it doesn’t cause damage over time. Additionally, you can add a fuel stabilizer to keep gas or diesel from breaking down while in storage over the winter months. A t ifr e After your equipment is cleaned and flushed, it is impor- tant to add antifreeze and run it through the entire system to keep it from freezing. RV antifreeze is recommended since it can be sprayed on the ground when flushing out the sprayer. Start by adding the RV antifreeze into the prod- tank and uct turn on the pump. Allow the antifreeze circulate to through out the entire spray system, including the booms, turning on one section at a time until the antifreeze flows out of the nozzle openings. www.njturfgrass.org Clippings | Issue 1 • 2023 18 q m e n e r t e q u m e n t r e m A d d n e e z b n e GAIN A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON ANTHRACNOSE CONTROL AND MORE Can be applied with no PGR effects, phytotoxicity, thinning or unwanted regulation Excels at controlling foliar diseases including anthracnose, brown patch and dollar spot No heat restrictions Ascernity® fungicide combines an advanced SDHI and the proven cooling DMI to bring broad-spectrum disease control into focus.

It was a great opportunity to network and learn about other businesses in the industry t To M ow I WTM r Law n c. ( Y ou I first met Cece and NJTA President Matt Lindner while ex- hibiting at the NJLCA conference in Lambertville in the fall, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share the story of IWTMYL with a wider audience. As a 501c3 non-profit or- ganization, our mission is to help the elderly, veterans, and disabled with basic lawn maintenance. I founded IWTMYL in the summer of 2020, after I was laid off from my job in advertising during the height of the pan- demic. Mowing my lawn was a therapeutic activity for me, and I wanted to do something good in the world while I fig- ured out my next steps. So, I decided to offer my services to help the elderly with their yard work at no cost, as they are the most vulnerable to the virus. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, as millions of people were losing their jobs due to the pandemic. Our story was picked up by local and national news, and we had cli- ents reaching out from all over the United States. I even had people wanting to volunteer, so I started distributing client leads based on availability and equipment. As we interacted with our clients, we learned that many of them were veterans or disabled. This inspired us to incor- porate this into our mission, and we have been able to help those in need with basic lawn maintenance. The feedback we received from those we were able to help was truly ap- preciative, and we even heard from people who were not us- ing our services but found our story uplifting at a time when they needed it. Fast forward 2.5 years later, we have coverage across 40+ states and over 330 landscaping volunteers enlisted. Even though the pandemic has come to an end, there is still a mas- sive need for our services. We continue to receive requests for help through voicemail, our website, social media, and email. Volunteers can register on our website and create a profile listing their equipment and availability. There are no com- mitments, and even one visit per year can make a differ- ence. We are always in need of more help on the landscap- ing frontlines, particularly from landscaping companies who have the equipment and are already on routes with their for-profit businesses. The leads we provide are gen- erally for those who cannot afford landscaping contracts or are unable to do the work themselves due to old age or other life circumstances. In addition to volunteering, there are other ways to con- tribute to IWTMYL and give back to the local commu- nity. Equipment donations, particularly battery-powered equipment, are appreciated as we strive to be environ- mentally friendly. We have received direct donations from Milwaukee Tool, Ryobi, and Stihl, among others. Finan- cial contributions are also helpful in improving our tech- nology and building awareness and are tax deductible. We also welcome help with other areas of the busi- ness, such as strategy and operations. Thank you again to Cece and the New Jer- sey Turfgrass Associa- tion for the opportunity to share our story and mission. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those in need and create a more compassionate and car- ing world.
