Things are pretty dry in California at the moment. The Golden State is currently experiencing one of the worst droughts on record, a natural disaster that’s lasted four long years. In fact, things are getting so bad that earlier this year, Gov. Jerry Brown issued mandatory water cutbacks of 25 percent. And that’s pretty bad news if you’re a blade of grass. Thanks to the shortage, Californians can only water their lawns two or three times a week (down from the usual four or five), and lawns across the state are now a nasty brown.
Hoping to keep things nice and tidy, some Californians have torn up their lawns, replacing the grass with rocks, native plants, or artificial substitutes. But if people aren’t willing to tear up their yards, there is one inventive solution. Enter David Bartlett, the brains behind Xtreme Green Grass. Give Bartlett a phone call, and he’ll show up at your home armed with a sprayer and plenty of paint. That’s right. For 25 cents per square foot, Bartlett and his crew will paint your grass green.
“It’s just like hair dye,†Bartlett explained to The Sacramento Bee. He also says his paint is all-natural and won’t harm the environment in any way. And according to Bartlett, his method is a whole lot cheaper than replacing your entire lawn with native plants. Xtreme Green Grass also offers a special service around Christmastime. If you want that winter wonderland look, Bartlett will paint your lawn white to give it that festive feel. True, David might find himself out of a job once it starts raining again, but at the moment, business is booming. --
