Nestled in the vibrant community of Bloomington, Minnesota, LUNSETH Lawn Care Professionals has blossomed from humble beginnings into a leader in the lawn care industry.
Founded by Eric Lunseth in 2007, what started in a modest garage quickly evolved into a trusted name that embodies quality, communication, and professionalism. By 2010, the drive for excellence gained further momentum when Shay Lunseth, wife of Eric, joined the team full-time, leading the charge for the organic division known as Organic Lawns by LUNSETH. Together, they transformed a small operation into a flourishing business that caters to over 2,000 satisfied customers, supported by a dedicated annual crew of approximately 50 employees.
LUNSETH Lawn Care Professionals stands out for its comprehensive suite of services. Their offerings include commercial grounds maintenance, commercial snow removal, landscape design and installation, hardscapes, and, notably, organic lawn care solutions. Focused on creating beautifully manicured landscapes, LUNSETH's mission is to enhance both business and residential environments. A cornerstone of their approach involves understanding the unique needs of their clients and their properties, which enables their expert team to provide tailored recommendations and sustainable landscape designs.
Committed to fostering healthier lawns while protecting the environment, LUNSETH offers an organic alternative to traditional chemical lawn care practices. “The company utilizes 100% OMRI certified organic fertilizers and natural weed control solutions, which promote not only vibrant lawns but also a safer ecosystem,” Shay explains. LUNSETH’s innovative methods include the application of corn gluten meal for pre-emergent weed control and liquid iron for managing existing weeds. Each season, the company follows a structured program: early spring marks the start with corn gluten application; late spring brings organic fertilizers and liquid iron; summer includes another corn gluten treatment; and fall features aeration and overseeding to bolster lawn health.
However, LUNSETH's dedication to sustainability extends beyond just lawn care. They offer a variety of add-on services designed to further enhance lawn health and environmental integrity, including microbial soil boosters, natural mosquito repellent using cedar oil, and compost tea applications to promote disease prevention. Their landscaping projects also “embrace ecological practices, featuring pollinator gardens, rain gardens, and sustainable soil management techniques that create impactful and green outdoor spaces,” says Shay.
An exciting new development at LUNSETH is the introduction of electric mowing services, providing clients with a quieter, cleaner, and more eco-friendly option for lawn maintenance. This initiative underscores the company's commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship.
Choosing organic lawn care with LUNSETH means prioritizing the health and well-being of clients, their families, pets, and the local ecosystem. By minimizing the use of synthetic chemicals, LUNSETH actively works to safeguard waterways from harmful pollutants and promote biodiversity within the soil, supporting a thriving community of beneficial insects, birds, and wildlife.
