Grow Green Weed Control
Locally owned in South Louisiana
Local roots. Higher standards.
Grow Green was built to give local homeowners something better: lawn treatments designed for our climate, dependable people who show up, and clear communication after every visit.
Our story
Built on service, responsibility, and doing the job right.
Dereck Palermo founded Grow Green Weed Control with a straightforward idea: South Louisiana homeowners deserved reliable lawn care from a local team that would take ownership of the result.
As a professional firefighter, Dereck built the company around the same habits his other career demands—show up prepared, pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and be accountable when people count on you.
What began as one local owner serving his neighbors has grown into a dedicated team caring for lawns across Ascension Parish, East Baton Rouge Parish, Iberville Parish, Jefferson Parish, Livingston Parish, St. James Parish, St. John the Baptist Parish, St. Tammany Parish, Tangipahoa Parish, and West Baton Rouge Parish. The company has grown, but the standard has not changed: treat every property carefully, explain what was done, and never make a customer chase us for an answer.
Why Grow Green
We do not try to be every kind of lawn company.
We are lawn-treatment specialists. That focus gives our team more time to understand local turf, improve application quality, and catch problems before they become expensive.
Professional equipment, measured application rates, and weather-aware timing help us treat the lawn precisely while protecting beds, hardscapes, and surrounding plants.
Service reminders, gate and pet notes, clear visit updates, and a responsive local office mean you know when we came, what we did, and what comes next.
What better service looks like
A program—not a random spray.
Healthy turf takes consistent care. Our seasonal lawn program follows the lawn through the year and adjusts to the conditions we see at each visit. Plans start at $39/month. Your estimate depends on lawn size and selected services.
- We inspect before treating. Technicians look for weeds, turf stress, disease pressure, and conditions that may change the plan.
- We document the visit. You receive useful information about the service—not a vague “we were here” notification.
- We keep watching the lawn. Progress is tracked from visit to visit so emerging issues can be addressed at the right time.
Our approach
Clear from the first quote to every treatment after it.
You should never have to wonder what is happening with your lawn. Our process is built to keep the service simple and the expectations clear.
Measure & understand
We learn about the property, identify the turf, and understand the issues you want solved.
Build the right plan
Your quote is based on the lawn and the services that make sense—not a generic package full of extras.
Treat with precision
Technicians apply the right products at calibrated rates with care around the entire property.
Report & adjust
We share what we found, explain what to expect, and adjust future visits as conditions change.
