Purposeful green spaces work harder than we think. Turfgrass cools the air, absorbs rainfall, produces oxygen, and creates healthier green spaces for people to spend time outdoors.

#TuesdayTip: Step outside and let nature work a little magic! As winter nears, spending time outdoors under the sunlight can raise your serotonin levels, the body's "happy chemical" and give you a natural dose of vitamin D. The best mood-boosting combo, if you ask us.

The real story begins when the work is done and an ordinary backyard becomes the backdrop for extraordinary memories. Because the best outdoor spaces are measured by more than how they look. They’re measured by the life that happens there. https://t.co/ngw7t9UcpZ

If crisp fall evenings have you firing up the grill or inviting friends over for one more round of yard games, you might be an Entertainer Extraordinaire! This Backyarding Personality Type knows the best gatherings happen outside.

Your yard is more than landscaping, it's living space. Watching the Newlands' backyard take shape is a reminder that the best outdoor spaces are designed to be lived in. Go behind the scenes of #SecondNature: https://t.co/2E3ijwAi54

This season, let kids lend a helping hand. Mulch leaves and grass clippings to feed your lawn naturally, or clean out flower beds together to make room for winter wildlife. Caring for your yard is a great way to learn how living landscapes work. https://t.co/8nRukGtWWH

A few flowers can brighten your backyard and support an entire ecosystem. Planting the right flowers in the right place helps welcome pollinators and other wildlife right outside your door. https://t.co/PEh1gnp2bI #TurfMutt #Pollinators

#TuesdayTip: Turn your next park visit into a scavenger hunt, finding leaves, bird, rocks, and more! A trip to your local park is a great way to have fun while discovering the science of living landscapes together. https://t.co/8nRukGtWWH #OutdoorLearning #GreenSpaces #TurfMutt

Every shovel brought this backyard one step closer to becoming exactly what it was meant to be, while every plant helped welcome the birds and pollinators that bring it to life.

Calling all Zen Masters: If your happy place is a quiet backyard or a peaceful park, science says you're onto something. Spending as little as 10 minutes in green space can help reduce stress and improve your mood.

Create a yard that's alive with birdsong! Trees, shrubs and flowering plants do more than look beautiful, they create the food, water and shelter birds need to thrive.

Fall is one of the best times to plant! #TuesdayTip: Let kids research your USDA Plant Hardiness Zone, pick plants that thrive in your area, and learn why the right plant in the right place makes all the difference. Pollinators will thank you.

Fall is one of the most important times to water wisely. About an inch of water each week helps your lawn, trees, and shrubs build strong roots before winter arrives.

Your spring lawn will thank you. More tips here: https://t.co/aCItWTaYaN
