We grow turf-type Tall Fescue with a small percentage of Bluegrass, grown on netted sod for added strength and durability. This blend is specially selected for the Midwest transition zone and performs well in our local soil and climate.

We don’t maintain a traditional staffed office, but we operate from two farm locations. You’ll find the addresses and directions listed on our website’s contact page.

We are typically closed on Sundays. Saturday hours vary by season—please check our website or call ahead.

There are generally only two grasses used in Cincinnati: Turf Type Tall Fescue and Bluegrass varieties.  Tall Fescue is preferred by homeowners for its look, feel, and ease of maintenance.  Because it is better suited for the Cincinnati climate, Eastgate Sod only grows and sells Turf Type Tall Fescue.

Tall Fescue provides a number of advantages to homeowners over the Bluegrass varieties.

• No thatch build-up

• Fescue grows a very deep root system which is very adaptable to the Cincinnati soils, which usually have a very high content of clay.

• Fescue is very resistant to insects.  Only grubs, which affect all grasses, cause problems with Fescue.

• Fescue is only susceptible to 1 disease problem compared to 4 or 5 diseases which affect Bluegrass.

• Fescue requires lower maintenance and less water than Bluegrass.

Eastgate Sod only grows netted turf-type Tall Fescue.  The Fescue is netted for easy handling and to protect the sod from tearing.  Fescue sod is generally very tender and will tear very easily when grown without netting.  Others who grow Tall Fescue without netting generally include 8-10% Bluegrass to allow handling of the sod.  The problem with including Bluegrass with Fescue is that if we have several wet summers, the Bluegrass can take over the Tall Fescue.

Turfgrass can be installed year round as long as it is available, even on frozen ground; however, sodding during the heat of summer will require more watering than during cooler periods.

Measure the area to be covered to determine your square-yardage requirements. Using a tape-measure you can quickly determine the length and width of the area. Multiplying the length and width together will give you the square-footage.

All orders for pick-up should be called into the office at (513) 608-1855 at least one day in advance.  Ordering early in the week will normally provide the quickest turn-around

Delivery orders should be scheduled anywhere from a couple of days to a week in advance, depending on the time of year.  Orders are filled on an "as available basis".
