Turf Time: How to manage a golf course organically


Welcome to the Turf Time podcast series, where we talk with superintendents and golf course managers from across North America about four exciting topics: organic course management, the challenges associated with preparing for and recovering from large scale events as well as water management and extending the plant growing season.

Managing a golf course has a range of challenges, one being the choice between organic and synthetic products to support the development of a healthy and quality turf.

In this episode our host, Dr Frank Rossi, associate professor, School of Integrative Plant Science Horticulture Section at Cornell University, speaks with Kevin Banks, golf course superintendent at Vineyard Golf Club in Edgartown, MASS and Kevin Teahan, golf and turf manager at San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, CA about organic course management.
