Parish-Wide Coverage

Sod Across Jefferson Parish

Jefferson Parish covers 642 square miles in NOLA Metro, with approximately 440,000 residents and Gretna as parish seat. The parish economy runs on the Port of New Orleans container terminals, oil and gas services, healthcare anchored by East Jefferson and West Jefferson, retail at Lakeside Shopping Center and Oakwood, and tourism overflow from New Orleans. Jefferson Parish was carved out of Orleans Parish in 1825. Today it is the most populous suburban parish in Louisiana and the eastern Gulf's primary container port.

Todd Broussard runs statewide delivery for Louisiana Sod Farms. We supply sod to every Jefferson Parish address from our family of Louisiana sod farms. Your pallet gets cut the morning it leaves, loaded straight off the cutter, and dropped on your driveway the same day. No middleman markup. No retail garden center sitting time.

Jefferson Parish sits in USDA Zone 9a to 9b, humid subtropical with hot humid summers and mild winters, with frequent tropical storms in late summer, with 64 inches of rain a year and frost dates running first fall frost mid-December, last spring frost early March. Soil across the parish runs coastal alluvial soils with heavy clay throughout most of Metairie, Kenner, and the Westbank, with organic-rich silts on the Westbank parishes between the Mississippi River and the Barataria swamps, and salt-influenced soils on Grand Isle. We pick your grass variety around your specific yard and zip code, not a generic chart.

Grass Types

Best Grass Types for Jefferson Parish Soil

Four varieties cut fresh from our family of Louisiana sod farms. Picked for Jefferson Parish soil, climate, and the way folks here use their yards.

St. Augustine

Dominant across Jefferson Parish. Floratam handles mixed sun and the alkaline clay across Metairie, Kenner, and the Westbank. Palmetto for deeper oak shade in Old Metairie and Bucktown.

View St. Augustine

Zoysia

Empire Zoysia for newer Westbank subdivisions, Elmwood-area builds, and the family-yard segment of Old Metairie. Holds up to kids and dogs in the heavy clay better than most varieties.

Bermuda

TifTuf Bermuda is a niche pick for full-sun commercial along Veterans Memorial Boulevard and the Westbank Expressway. Most residential Jefferson lots have too much shade for Bermuda to thrive.

Centipede

Not a typical Jefferson Parish pick. The heavy alkaline clay across the parish does not match Centipede's preference for acidic sandy soil. Better fit for rural Florida Parish lots up north.

Match to Your Yard

Best Grass Pick for Your Jefferson Parish Yard

Every yard across Jefferson Parish is a little different. Yards in Gretna run different from rural Grand Isle or Lafitte, and the soil shifts as you move across the parish. Here is how we match grass to your specific situation. 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 kids and dogs in the heavy Jefferson clay better than anything else we supply. Common in newer Westbank and Elmwood family neighborhoods.
  • Full-sun new subdivision: TifTuf Bermuda for the rare full-sun lots and commercial properties along Veterans and the Westbank Expressway. Floratam St. Augustine for everything else.
  • Older lot with mature shade: Palmetto St. Augustine. Best pick for deep oak shade in Old Metairie, Bucktown, and the historic streets along the Mississippi.
  • Low-maintenance rural property: Empire Zoysia for the Grand Isle and rural Westbank pockets. Most of Jefferson is suburban and St. Augustine fits better than the rural-style varieties.

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

St. Augustine dominates Jefferson Parish lawns. Floratam is the standard for mixed sun and the heavy alkaline clay common across Metairie, Kenner, and the Westbank. Palmetto holds up better in deep oak shade in older streets like Old Metairie. Empire Zoysia is the pick for newer Westbank subdivisions and Elmwood-area builds where traffic matters. Bermuda only fits the full-sun commercial properties along Veterans and the Westbank Expressway. Centipede is honestly a poor fit for most of Jefferson because the alkaline clay does not match its acidic-soil preference.

Same-week delivery is standard across Jefferson Parish when you call by noon. Same-day is possible on early-morning calls when your variety is in season. Routes from the closest Louisiana sod farm growing your variety, not from a warehouse. Jefferson clay holds water heavily, so the first ten days of watering matters more than in sandier parishes. Watch for low spots that pond.

Yes. Contractor and builder discount kicks in at five or more pallets per order. NET 30 terms for qualified accounts. Recurring delivery scheduling for ongoing Jefferson Parish projects, including new construction in Gretna and surrounding subdivisions. Worksite drop coordination for tract builders.
