Fresh to Your Driveway

Fresh Sod Supplied to Hammond Driveways

We supply sod to Hammond and all of Tangipahoa Parish through our family of Louisiana sod farms. Your pallet gets cut the morning it leaves, loaded straight off the cutter from the farm closest to your address, and dropped on your Hammond driveway the same day. No middleman markup. No retail garden center sitting time.

Todd Broussard runs statewide delivery for Louisiana Sod Farms. He has spent years supplying sod across every major growing region in the state. Hammond sits in the heart of Louisiana sod country, so the supply chain into Tangipahoa is as short as it gets. Same-week delivery is standard. Same-day is possible on early-morning calls when your variety is in season.

Hammond sits in USDA Zone 8b, hot humid summers, mild winters, 65+ inches of rain a year. Soil shifts as you move through Tangipahoa Parish: sandy loam over clay across most yards, heavier clay near the Tangipahoa River, well-drained loam in higher subdivisions like North Oaks. We pick your grass variety around your specific yard, not a generic chart. Send your zip and we will tell you straight.

Match to Your Yard

Best Grass Pick for Your Hammond Yard

Every yard in Hammond is a little different. Here is how we match grass to your situation so you are not guessing. The LSU AgCenter turfgrass guide is a solid second opinion if you want one.

  • Family yard with kids or dogs: Empire Zoysia. Holds up to traffic better than anything else we supply. Common in North Oaks and Yorkwood.
  • Full-sun new subdivision: TifTuf Bermuda. Drought resistant once rooted. Handles the open no-shade lots in West Hammond and along the I-12 corridor.
  • Older lot with shade: Classic St. Augustine. Takes filtered light from Hammond's mature oaks and still fills in thick.
  • Low-maintenance rural property: Classic Centipede. Slower grower, fewer mowings, tolerant of the acidic sandy soil common in rural Tangipahoa.

Not sure which one fits? Send us your zip code and a few photos. We will tell you straight.
