We supply sod to Metairie and all of Jefferson Parish through our family of Louisiana sod farms.

No middleman markup. No big-box garden center sitting time.
Todd Broussard runs statewide delivery for Louisiana Sod Farms. His routes hit every major sod-growing region in Louisiana, including the historic Tangipahoa farms that supply most of Greater New Orleans. He knows which farm is cutting which variety on any given Tuesday, which is why same-week delivery into Metairie is standard rather than a promise.
Metairie sits in USDA Zone 9a, hot humid summers, mild winters, 65+ inches of rain a year, with most yards on alluvial silty clay loam carried in by the Mississippi River. The Metairie Ridge drains better than the low interior near Veterans Memorial. Old Metairie's oak canopy changes the sun pattern street by street. We pick your grass variety around your specific yard, not a generic chart. Send your zip and we will tell you straight.
Four varieties grown for Louisiana's USDA Zone 9a climate and supplied direct from a Louisiana sod farm. Pick by yard, soil, sun, and traffic. We help match.
The dominant pick across Metairie. Thick blade for mature-oak yards in Old Metairie, Metairie Club Gardens, and streets off Metairie Road. Floratam for full sun, Palmetto for deep shade, Raleigh splits the difference.

View ZoysiaTifTuf Bermuda mostly for commercial properties along Veterans Memorial and Airline. Not typical for Metairie residential because most yards have at least some oak shade, but the right call for open lots.
View BermudaNot a typical Metairie pick. The alkaline silty clay loam in most of Jefferson Parish does not match Centipede's preference for acidic soil. Better fit for rural lots up in the Florida Parishes or Central Louisiana.
View CentipedeEvery yard in Metairie is a little different, especially with the oak canopy in Old Metairie and the more open lots out in Lakeside. 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.

St. Augustine handles Metairie's mix of sun and oak shade better than anything else, especially in Old Metairie and along the older streets near Metairie Road. Floratam is the workhorse, Palmetto holds up best in the deepest shade. Empire Zoysia is the pick for newer Lakeside and Greenacres subdivisions where yards see more sun and traffic. For chronic wet spots near drainage canals, Carpetgrass is the niche pick. Centipede and Bahia are not common picks for Metairie's alkaline clay.
Yes. Metairie is core Greater New Orleans delivery territory.
