About TurfCareBlog

Welcome, 

We are a site written by groundsmen for groundsmen.

This site has been created to encourage, inspire and connect Groundsmen and Greenkeepers who put the ‘grass into the grass roots’.

The blog started back in 2017 and recently branched into winter sports and bowl posts.

What are we about?

 We provide free and practical advice and support. The aim of the website is to connect Groundsman/Greenkeepers at all levels of the industry. We currently have a 50/50 split in readers and believe this connection can only be positive for our industry.

We provide online services for selling machinery and creating a buyers guide and shop that is to be built on best value principles.

Provide free advertising to clubs with no full time staff to help clubs fill Groundsman/Greenkeepers positions.

Anyone can blog as a guest blogger, enabling everyone to be heard and have a voice. Just get incontact with Brian for more information

Thank you for supporting us.

Brian and the team 🌱
