Elsah, IL - The Principia School, an esteemed private school in St. Louis, Missouri, was so pleased with the results of their EVERGREEN® turf covers that their sister school, Principia College in Elsah, Illinois, decided to go with the same product for their soccer pitch.

Principia College ordered 89,000 square feet of EVERGREEN® Original turf blankets, allowing the school to just as successfully protect and maintain their soccer field year-round. The four sections arrived late last year, providing protection against the hazards of winter weather.

Principia College gave rave reviews to the turf overs, describing their field as in “excellent shape.” The school has been receiving many compliments on the condition of their playing surface. “I think they’ve definitely helped improve the conditions for growth and resilience during the winter.”

EVERGREEN® Original winter turf covers create a greenhouse effect by allowing sun, air, and moisture to reach the turf below. Excess heat is released through a unique lace coating, creating optimal growing conditions while providing a protective barrier for all types of turf. Easy to install, EVERGREEN® turf covers can be quickly laid down to protect against frost or increase the speed of growth after repairs.

Investing in turf growth blankets keeps teams on the field for a longer playing season by delaying fall dormancy and creating earlier spring greenups. Truly a four-season maintenance tool, players will enjoy thicker turf with better color game after game.
