I would like to find out about having a small area at my daughters high school turn their old raggedy grass rectangles in the student art court into the nice synthetic grass. How can I get ahold of the folks who make the grass, do you know?Thanks for letting me know. And also, there were floors made of squares of cork but were, in fact, some sort of linolium. Any way to also find them?thanks so much for your trouble. Gail Mason I saw the house last year and thought the synthetic grass was surprisingly real looking both in appearance and in feeling.
