Business Profile
Brookmeade Sod Farm is a family-owned and operated business that has been a cornerstone of Hanover County since 1968. Founded by Virginia native Louis Brooking, an agronomy graduate from Virginia Tech, the farm leverages deep local roots and scientific expertise. Louis, who grew up on a Henrico County farm, strategically located Brookmeade on the South Anna River. He remains actively involved, overseeing three Hanover County farms and dedicating himself to turf research, including soil testing and collaborating with Virginia Tech on test plots to develop the best grass varieties for Central Virginia's climate. With a dedicated team, many of whom have been with the farm for over 15 years, Brookmeade combines decades of hands-on farming experience with a commitment to personalized customer service and reliable, fresh sod.
Q&A
What types of sod do you offer for my Doswell property, and how do I choose?
We specialize in three varieties suited for our Central Virginia climate: Turf Type Tall Fescue, Zoysia, and Bermuda. Turf Type Tall Fescue is a popular, durable choice for most lawns, while Zoysia offers excellent heat and drought tolerance. Bermuda is ideal for high-traffic, sunny areas. Based on over 50 years of farming and soil testing right here in Hanover County, we can provide expert advice on which sod will perform best for your specific yard's sun exposure and soil conditions.
Can you help if I have dying or overgrown shrubs in my landscape?
Yes, absolutely. While we are primarily a sod farm, our landscape construction and maintenance services allow us to address common local issues like declining shrubs. We can remove overgrown or unhealthy plants, prepare the soil, and install fresh, healthy sod to revitalize your lawn. For a complete solution, we can also discuss replanting with hardy, low-maintenance greenery suited to the Doswell area as part of your landscape renovation.
Do you offer both delivery and installation for sod orders?
We provide flexible options to suit your project. You can pick up fresh-cut sod daily from our Hanover County farm, or we can arrange delivery. For homeowners who prefer a professional finish, we also offer expert installation services. Our team will place the sod on your prepared grade, ensuring proper establishment. We harvest to order with a one-square-yard minimum, and our staff is available for follow-up questions to help your new lawn thrive.
