Southeast of Abington, home to Burrage Pond and cranberry country.
Hanson sits at the edge of Massachusetts’ cranberry-growing country, with a more rural feel than towns closer to Boston — larger lots, more wooded acreage, and properties bordering wetlands and former bog land near Burrage Pond.
The mix of larger lots and wooded, wetter parcels means Hanson is one of the towns where drainage grading and land clearing come up more often alongside standard mowing and fertilizing.
Hanson’s proximity to former cranberry bog land means some properties sit on wetter, more peat-influenced soil than the drier glacial till further north — something we check before recommending a fertilizing or renovation plan.
Where the soil is standard glacial till rather than bog-influenced, Hanson runs the same naturally acidic profile as Abington and Whitman, and benefits from the same lime-first approach.
Grading and drainage work on Hanson’s wetter parcels is best scheduled outside of spring thaw and heavy fall rain, when the ground is firm enough for equipment to work without rutting the site.
Updating review now 2 years with this company. Lawn looks great! Just standard lawn fertilizer program with dethatch and overseed in the fall. Lawn is now healthy, thick and green for first time since I’ve owned this property for 30 years I’ve also used Turf Envy for new sod lawn installation with cobblestone/gravel at another property. good input and suggestions from owner Matt.. it looks awesome! This company may not be the cheapest but I think pricing is fair. They do a great job every week mowing and edging. I couldn’t be happier I chose Turf Envy for landscape and lawn maintenance. —————————————————————————- First year experience with Turf Envy. Fertilizer, sprinkler start up and first lawn cut this far. Owner very engaged and knowledgeable. Nice job crew. Glad I went with this company to take care of all lawn needs
Great spring cleanup!!
My wife and I had decided to perform a reboot of our exterior landscaping. We partnered with Turf Envy to devise a strategy on plantings that could weather some of the challenges that we have. Matt made methodical selections that not only enhanced the aesthetics of our home but could also sustain through drought conditions and poor quality soil. They were extremely communicative and they made scheduling convenient. Their team arrived on time and completed a significant amount of scope in one day; Furthermore, they were extremely professional and left our home in better condition than it was found. My wife and I are extremely appreciative of the service that we were provided and will continue working with Turf Envy for all of our future projects and needs. Kudos to the entire team for a job well done!
