Andrew

My real name is Andrew, and I’m a pandemic-born lawn freak. I started my social media channels back in 2021 as a joke because my family and co-workers were tired of me talking about my lawn and showing them pictures. That’s when “The Dad Bod Lawn” was born.

The goal of my channel is to use lawn care to make you laugh, teach you about grass, and connect on a personal, relatable level not only through lawn care, but also through being a dad. I’m a father of two, one boy and one girl, and they are my main focus in this world.

Being a parent is extremely hard, and I’m tested every single day, but it’s the most rewarding role I play. Please excuse the dad jokes and dad-isms that’s just who I am now, and my New Balance shoes are amazingly comfortable.

I have the most amazing and supportive wife in the world, and I wouldn’t be able to spend the time I do creating content and managing my lawn without her. She’s the real MVP.

Thank you all for your support and for choosing to follow me on my lawn care journey. I truly don’t understand why so many people follow and subscribe to my channels devoted to grass, but I’m grateful for every single one of you.

My Products & Recommendations

Exclusive gear and recommended products, tested in real yards and chosen for performance, reliability, and value.

Big League Lawns Checkmate Lawn Striping Kit

Big League Lawns© manufactures striping rollers that connect to virtually every mower and size. As the operator mows the turf, the CheckMate™ striping roller gently folds the grass in the direction of cut. The resulting patterns are created by sunlight reflecting from the grass. Grass that is bent away from you reflects light which appears much lighter in color. Grass that is bent towards you appears a much deeper green due to shadows being cast under the bent tips of grass. When mowed and rolled in opposing directions, vibrant patterns are created, rivaling major league ballparks throughout America.
