Freedom Lawns of Charleston Now Open for Business

February 21, 2008 Hampstead, NC

The folks in Charleston, South Carolina can now experience the best in professional lawn care. According to company founder and CEO Mark A. Tamn. Kathleen Smith and Joe Grady have been granted a license to open a Freedom Lawn Franchise in Charleston County, South Carolina. This is the Fourth Freedom Lawns outlet to open in the past year.

Kathleen and Joe decided to purchase a Freedom Lawns business because they saw a need in the Charleston Region for a lawn care service that could provide the customer service and results that the residents of Charleston deserve. They also embraced the Freedom Lawn philosophy of performing services and using products that were safer for the sensitive ecosystems encompassing the Charleston area. They also liked the fact that unlike other franchise lawn care firms, Freedom Lawns focuses exclusively on the warm season turf grasses used in the southeastern US.

Freedom Lawns continues to expand their franchise system in the south with two new franchise locations in Hilton Head, SC and Savannah GA scheduled for opening in late 2008.

NEW HAMPSTEAD KIWANIS PARK AND FREEDOM LAWNS WIN THE WAR AGAINST FIRE ANTS

November 19, 2006 (Hampstead, NC.)-An estimated 40 million people, primarily in the Southern United States, are in potential conflict with fire ants on a daily basis. Fire ant stings can cause blisters, allergic reactions, and in some extreme cases, death. These resilient insects also cause an estimated $2 billion a year in property and equipment damage, injury to landscapes and gardens, destruction of crops, and illness or death of pets and livestock.

The residents of Hampstead, children, and guest visiting the beautiful new Hampstead Kiwanis Park, can now enjoy themselves without the threat of the dreaded imported fire ants, thanks to the efforts of Todd Godin, President of the Kiwanis Park, Dee Turner, Director of Pender County Parks and Recreation, and Mark Tamn, president and founder of Freedom Lawns USA, Hampsead.

In the war against fire ants, Freedom Lawns utilizes a revolutionary product called Top Choice. Top Choice is a curative and preventative granular insecticide that will control fire ants for up to one year with a single application, and is also the most effective product available for the control of another lawn menacing insect, the mole cricket.

"With the potential health threat the fire ant poses to the general public, and particularly children, we all realized the benefits of getting a handle on the fire ants situation out here at the park", said Mark Tamn, "Not only do the fire ants themselves pose a potential health hazard to visitors at the park, but the mounds that the fire ants build on the playing surfaces, disrupts playability and can cause sport related injuries", explained Tamn.

Freedom Lawns USA has donated a portion of the expense to control fire ant treatments to other high traffic areas including the Battle Ship North Carolina in Wilmington, NC.
