Why work for DLF? 

We do good things! Turf grass is more than just a pretty sight – it helps fight climate change by trapping carbon and preventing soil erosion, making it a vital ally in preserving the environment. Grass acts as a natural filter, purifying water and improving air quality.  Perennial forage grass and legume crops also provide essential habitats for diverse wildlife, showcasing the crucial role of supporting biodiversity and sustaining ecosystems. Grass, alfalfa and clover feed animals and produce oxygen. Just a few reasons.... and many more! Check us out!
