Phosphorus-free fertilizer — it’s the law, and the only green way to go!

To protect our land of 10,000 lakes and stunning rivers of all sizes, Minnesota prohibits the application of phosphorus-containing fertilizer to lawns. Find out more about this law and how you can use phosphorus-free fertilizer for a healthier and truly greener lawn with this Minnesota Department of Agriculture fact sheet.
