Turf Merchants, Inc.

 

 

TMiTurf Merchants, Inc. (TMI) is located in the heart of Oregon's Willamette Valley, where over 65 percent of the world's supply of grass seed is grown. Generations of experience, expertise in production, and abundant natural rainfall make the quality of Oregon Grass seed the best in the world. More than 400 million pounds of grass seed is produced here annually.

Turf Merchants, Inc. sources proprietary turfgrasses from its own Research and Breeding Programs, from Private Breeding Programs as well as programs from institutions such as Rutger's, University of Florida, Texas A & M, University of Arizona, and Mississippi State University to name a few.

TMI utilizes a complex network of carefully selected growers to contract produce more than 40 million pounds of proprietary turfgrass seed each year. We operate from three full-service warehouses, strategically located, where we can simultaneously process, blend, package and ship. TMI sets the standard for prompt, accurate shipments direct to customers worldwide, thereby enabling our distributors to offer our proprietary products competitively. In addition to our cool-season grasses, we offer domestically produced warm season Bermuda and Zoysia grasses to meet a wide variety of situations. "Wildthings", our regional wildflower assortments are also featured in our product line, making TMI one of the world's most complete "green industry" seed suppliers.

TMI's focus is on improved turfgrasses for the professional markets of Golf, Landscaping, and Landscape Architecture. TMI varieties are used commercially as sod, hydro seeded onto golf courses, parks, and lawns, repackaged for the retail market, added to custom blends and regularly specified for use at resorts, hotels, theme parks and other high profile projects worldwide. TMI also exports Oregon grown grasses to over 20 countries around the world.

On the Golf Course, there's a high likelihood that TMI produced some the seed for the fairways, greens, tees and even the roughs. Today many grass seed companies have top rated varieties that perform well in overall turf quality but when spring transition time comes, they just keep going. Our overseeding customers wanted varieties that offered a smoother spring transition . . . This is why TMI developed varieties with less heat tolerance, and unusually high quality, especially for Southern Overseeding. Thru TMI's expertise in Perfecting the Art of Overseeding, our Distributors are the leaders in highly specialized varieties to meet the needs of the Golf and Turfgrass Professional.
