Where Can You Buy Fresh Sod in Sacramento?
You can buy fresh sod in the Sacramento area straight from CalTurf, a sod farm in Davis on Mace Blvd. We grow a 90 percent fescue and 10 percent bluegrass blend, mature it a full year, and cut it fresh to order. You can pick it up at the farm or have it delivered across Sacramento, Davis, Woodland, Fairfield, Folsom and Yolo and Solano counties.
Why buy sod from a farm instead of a store?
Sod is a living plant, and it starts to decline the moment it is cut. Sod that sits on a pallet at a store or yard can heat up and yellow before you ever lay it. Buying from the farm means your sod is cut fresh for your order and goes straight from the field to your yard. Our guide on how long sod can sit before installing explains why that matters.
What kind of sod does CalTurf grow?
CalTurf grows one blend: 90 percent fescue and 10 percent bluegrass, matured a full year in the field before it is cut. Fescue stays green through Sacramento Valley summers with regular watering and handles both sun and partial shade. Each roll is 2 feet by 4 feet, which covers 8 square feet. See our sod for the full details.
