Finding sod and top soil
Hello, can anyone recommend a place to buy sod and topsoil. I need about 340 square feet of both.
Thanks

you can buy both at home depot. i would also suggest that you try growing the grass from seed instead of buying sod, just get some scotts stuff at home depot and follow instructions. it's very easy, you just have to water.

Is it too late to plant seeds though? Seeds aren't supposed to be planted in hot weather, a friend of mine told me. Maybe if you get the seeds planted within a week or so you can still do it.

Check on craigslist. There are always people trying to get rid of dirt and fill. Sometimes even sod...

Come on, it's nowhere near being too hot to plant grass seed!
If you want sod, try DRAGONETTI in Flatlands. Call ahead and reserve the qty you need. Make sure you go as soon after the sod has been delivered to them as possible so that it hasn't dried out or sat around their nursery for a day or two.

Check out Kings County Nursery or something like that...they are on New York ave and Rutland I believe. Speak to a guy named Joe, I just went there this weekend for sod and shrubs and trees and he is well priced and a super nice guy...hooked me up!

Grass from seed is heartier than grass from sod. It's also wayyy cheaper.
