I am doing a bit of work for a friend that involves walking
across her lawn many times over about a week. I would rather not wear
a path in it. Is there something I can lay down to walk on that would
protect the grass?

It seems to me that some sort of steel grate might work. Does
anyone make such a product for this purpose?


TIA

When I was doing some work that involved rolling a wheelbarrow across my
lawn many times, I bought some cheap plywood to put down. I took it up
every day so the grass wouldn't die. Later I used it to put a floor in the
storage area over my garage.

Lawns are supposed to be walkable. A week's worth of going to and fro
(unless you're dragging bags of cement behind you) should do no harm.
If possible, you could vary your route a bit so as not to trample the
same area over and over, but one person's walking just shouldn't be a
problem.

This is not the case in all areas.

Depends on the weather conditions, too.
