Tehachapi is the odd one out in Kern County — at 4,000 feet you get real winters, wind that never quits, and a short growing season that leaves natural lawns brown well into spring. Turf solves the mountain version of the lawn problem: it's green in February when everything else is dormant.
Quality turf handles freeze-thaw cycles and Tehachapi's famous wind without breaking down, and it doesn't care that your growing season is half of Bakersfield's. Backyard putting greens are especially popular up here — a true-rolling surface that plays year-round, even between snow days. Mountain installs get a base built for drainage and frost, which is exactly why they belong with a licensed pro.
