Soil Health Program
In Partnership with COMAND®
At First In Outdoor Services, we believe great landscapes start below the surface.
That’s why we partner with COMAND®, a premium soil-building technology designed to restore the biological health of soil and create stronger, more resilient turf and landscapes.
Unlike traditional lawn treatments that simply add fertilizer, our soil health program focuses on rebuilding the soil ecosystem - so your lawn can thrive naturally.
Why Soil Health Matters
Most lawn problems start underground.
Compacted soil, poor organic matter, and a lack of beneficial microbes prevent roots from developing properly and make turf more vulnerable to drought, disease, and stress.
Healthy soil should:
-
Hold moisture while still draining properly
-
Support strong root development
-
Cycle nutrients naturally
-
Contain beneficial microbes that support plant growth
Our soil program restores these conditions so your landscape performs the way it should.
Our Partnership with COMAND®
We partner with COMAND® because it represents one of the most advanced approaches to soil building available.
COMAND is a microbially enriched organic soil amendment created using proprietary biotechnology that enhances the natural composting process and produces a finished product rich in beneficial soil biology.
This technology has been used in:
-
Golf courses
-
Professional sports turf
-
Municipal parks
-
High-end residential landscapes
By incorporating this system into our programs, we bring professional-grade soil science to residential and commercial landscapes.
Proprietary Microbial
Inoculation
A specialized blend of enzyme-producing microbes accelerates the composting process and creates a biologically rich final product.

Advanced
Composting Process
The Modified Static Aerobic Pile (MSAP) method promotes high microbial diversity and significantly increases beneficial organisms in the finished compost.
Exceptional
Soil Biology
Finished COMAND material often contains up to 100× higher levels of beneficial microbes, including actinomycetes & aerobic bacteria that support nutrient cycling.
Faster Soil
Improvement
Because of the enhanced biology, decomposition and soil-building processes can occur 30% faster than traditional compost methods.
