		<description><![CDATA[Fall is usually a decent time to seed, so if you ask our opinion, we always say go for it.  The results are almost always good.  But this fall was particularly landscape-friendly; just look at these pictures of some mid-fall seeding we did on a soccer field and a pretty steep slope!  So cheerfully green only 3-4 weeks later.  No [...]]]></description>
