What does Grass!365 sell? For the most part we sell FUN

Recently a customer resurfaced after a couple of years holding budget numbers for a new artificial grass backyard. Since our initial visit a good amount of time had passed with them living with a muddy kitchen and family room from the kids and dogs playing out back.
