episodic TURF TALK

Real Conversations. Real Education. Real Results.

This isn’t just another podcast about the green industry. This is Turf Talk.

Hosted by Eric “The Turf Teacher” Jones, Turf Talk brings together the people, knowledge, products, technology, and conversations driving the Green Industry forward.

From the jobsite to the classroom—and from the shop floor to the trade show floor—we’re talking about what’s happening right now in landscaping, turfgrass, horticulture, irrigation, pesticides, equipment, technology, and business.

Expect straightforward conversations, industry-leading guests, hands-on education, product and equipment discussions, business strategies, trade show coverage, and real-world knowledge you can put to work.

We talk with contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, educators, researchers, business owners, and industry leaders about what’s working, what’s changing, what’s coming next—and what professionals need to know to stay ahead.

Whether you’re building landscapes, maintaining properties, managing turf, applying pesticides, installing irrigation, selling equipment, growing a company, or educating the next generation of professionals, Turf Talk is built for you.

Learn More. Work Smarter. Grow Stronger. Stay Ahead.

Because the Green Industry deserves more than another podcast.

It deserves a platform.
