Huggett’s Pallet Sod

Huggett Sod Farm has served the diverse needs of sod users by offering a variety of options. Sod can be cut in a 10 square foot piece or 450 square foot roll, depending on the variety. While most of the sod is  grown on peat, we also grow it on mineral soil.

Varieties of turf include: bluegrass blend, fescue/bluegrass mix, and tall type fescue grass.  We utilize the results of studies done by the National Turfgrass  Evaluation Program based on the overall performance of the varieties for our region.

Turf reduces glare, filters odor and noise, and most important, turf absorbs carbon dioxide and traps much of the estimated 12 million tons of dust and dirt released annually into the U.S. atmosphere.

A 50 by 50 foot turf grass lawn releases enough oxygen for a family of four; the grass and trees along the U.S. interstate highway system release enough oxygen to support 22 million people.
