Environmental Strategies

Greenway Golf is setting the standard in environmental golf. Our Turf Grass Management Program is the only program in the industry that delivers superior playing surfaces while eliminating or greatly reducing chemical inputs. Courses on the Greenway program have been able to reduce their chemical and fertilizer cost on average 40-70%. Greenway Golf client Stevinson Ranch GC has not used a fungicide in over 6 years.

Taking Green Golf to the Next Level… Greenway Environmental Mission:

  • Superior environmental protection and exceptional quality golf turf playing surface are not exclusive; they are symbiotic.
  • By dramatically reducing use of chemicals, fertilizers, water inputs and reliance on mechanized mowing and maintenance machinery, Greenway Golf is committed to the most comprehensive environmental and climate sensitive management strategies in the golf industry.
  • Environmental protection, wildlife enhancement and superior playing surfaces alone are inadequate; Greenway Golf pledges to lower operation costs and improve the financial bottom line for your golf course and facilities.
  • The final result of your partnership with Greenway Golf is a satisfied player, a superior turf surface, comprehensive environmental restoration, protection and enhancement, decreased costs and increased profits.

In operation since 2002, and now having managed/consulted with over 40 courses, Greenway Golf has a proven track record that results in use of approximately 50% less nitrogen and 70% less chemicals than the average golf course, while using less water and resulting in decreased labor and energy costs.

Yet Greenway Golf appreciates that every golf course is different, and that even greater savings, protections and benefits are achievable at some locales. And because Greenway Golf recognizes the golfing public seeks to patronize ‘environmental’ golf courses, Greenway is committed to conducting environmental assessments for its clients, establishing chemical and water usage baselines, challenging our clients and ourselves to do even more, and to providing transparent analysis and up to date audit information in order to insure your golf course will remain on the cutting edge of environmental protection while insuring superior playing surfaces over the long term.

Greenway Testimonials

President, Merced Golf & Country Club

"In a few words... Hiring Greenway was one of the best decisions we ever made. The Club is still responsible and has control over setting the direction of the golf course but Greenway is responsible for making it happen." - President, Merced Golf & Country Club

"As you may be aware, it was a difficult decision for our board to break with tradition and retain an independent course management firm. While this decision was controversial at the time, I can assure you there has been no dissension since the members saw the results of your work... You have made the board look wise and forward thinking in the eyes of the members, and for that I am grateful."
