Hey,
I am looking for someone that sells Turface in the Macon/Warner
Robins/ Perry area of GA. Anyone know of a place, or does anyone in
this area want to split a bag of Turface?
thanks,
Jay


Look in the phone book under Lesco. They supply golf courses. If you can't
find it, call a couple of golf course and ask to speak to the Greens Keeper
and ask him/hir where they buy Turface, if they don't use Turface ask where
they buy their fertilizer, etc. You might also try a city parks dept.

Better yet, go to their website:
http://www.turface.com
Give them a call and they will tell you where the nearest distributor is. I did
this when I was living in Maine and found that the only distributor in the entire
state was 2 miles from my house. You'll get a good price, probably $11 or so per
bag.

If you go to the turface website and give them a call or email, they are
very good about replying with contact information.

http://www.turface.com (phone numbers are at the bottom of the page.
Ask for"Turface MVP" or you'll be sifting out about 1/4 of the bag as
dust and fines)


By the way, I noticed in one of the soil guides that TerraGreen is
mined in Georgia...

Check out GRACO. They may not carry "Turface" but the one in
Cairo, GA carries "Mule Mix" and I defy you to tell them apart.

Steve,
Thanks, I did not know they were selling turface, i thought they only
sold akadema. I usually buy their soil, but I am going to try buying
the components in bulk and mixing my own.
Oh, to the newsgroup, sorry for the multiple posts, My Internet
Explorer was acting weird last night, and I did not get a post
confirmation. Again,
sorry.

At $14 a bag (I think it was) at the monastery that seems a bit
pricey. Graco sells Mule Mix at $7.50 per 40 or 50 pound bag.
