NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING
A brown lawn does not always mean your lawn is dead; it could just be dormant. Some yellowing may be a sign of a dormant lawn. When your lawn is in hibernation, it shuts down to withstand weather changes as well as conserve water and nutrients.Grass that is dead, however, will not come back. If there are dry spots, hand-water them rather than over-watering your entire lawn.
