of them 😏 who broke through the fence on several occasions over
the winter to eat my nice grass which was lush, as you can imagine I was
less than impressed and the garden now looks like a battle field
😡 The owner of the horses was unphased by the whole scenario and
blamed me for having an old fence 😄🤔.
How can I get my garden back to how it was, do I need to re-turf or use
some sort of machinery, do I get landscape gardeners in, I'm at a loss
guys, can you help please


rake it even and let it grow. it should recover just
fine. keep it mowed regularly.

Thanks for the reply
But a rake would be lost in the divots caused by the horses,,the grass is really churned up and it's a huge area to rake 😳😳
