About Us

Grassroots hydroseeding is in it's second year of operation under this name. We have been operating for 5 years prior as Dirt Cheep, a name most in Okotoks and surrounding area will be familiar with. We are still operating closely alongside Dirt Cheep, as our product and the beautifully screened loam they sell go hand in hand. Please contact Dirt Cheep for all of your screened loam, bark mulch, compost and other wholesale landscape products.

Our Equipment

The TurfMaker equipment that we use is smaller and more diverse than most of the hydroseeding units you will see on the highways. We mix smaller batches of slurry and as a result, we weigh much less and can get into areas that the larger trucks cannot. Most larger trucks will not seed anything under a 2 acre area. The strength of our smaller machine is that we can efficiently seed both small and large areas.

We can be quite precise with our application as we spray all our product standing on the ground. We do not use a cannon, which will work for massive areas such as ditches that need only general cover but not so good when an even and precise application is required, or when sod quality results are important.
