- Turf Grass Organic Management Practices - This program was put into place to reduce the amount of chemicals used on the fields and open areas in the town parks. The practice uses aeration of lawns, compost applications, over-seeding, about two to three times a year. This creates a better soil base for the turf areas which in turn give you a better lawn
