Newsom is your one-stop shop for Maryland wholesale grass selections. Purchased in 1998 from J. Strickland Newsom by Allen and Carrie Bohrer, we have continued to deliver the same quality service and wholesale grass seed in MD. We carry a large selection of grass seed mixtures that include bentgrass, bermudagrass and perennial ryegrass. Even with our large selections of bulk grass seed in Maryland, we recognize that many of our wholesale customers require their own analysis. That is why we offer custom blends of grass seed and fertilizer that meet the individual needs of our customers.

Here at Newsom Seed, our Maryland wholesale grass seeds use only the finest equipment, which is used to clean and mix the seed components. We are one of the largest seed blending facilities located on the East Coast and the bulk of our business comes from our wholesale customers that take advantage of our 50-lb. to 1,000-lb. bulk bags. In addition to our bulk grass seed in Maryland, we also carry a full line of Maryland wholesale fertilizer. Similar to our grass seed mixtures, our fertilizer selections can be custom blended depending on your specifications.

We are proud to offer a comprehensive line of Maryland wholesale pesticides as well, with a wide variety of name brand and generic selections. We have extended our pesticide products to include many generic products, which are economical without compromising quality.

To keep consistent with our full range of products, we also offer hydroseeding supplies, erosion control blankets, turface and hybrid bluegrass, a great solution for heat tolerance.

As a superintendent or a distributor to golf courses you know the demand for superior results on every tee, every green, and every fairway. Progressive Turf has the sustainable solution for you!

We offer proprietary organically based, technologically advanced, liquid foliar fertilizers designed to improve turf grass color without promoting excessive top growth.

Progressive Turf started out in the golf course fertilizer industry and specifically tailored our Turf Foundation TM (10-3-5) and Greater Green TM (5-0-7) to meet the needs of high caliber courses situated in the most demanding climates. Our proprietary organic compound approach reduces the dependence on N-P-K as the primary source of nutrition and minerals unlike traditional fertilizers. Our products also contain all major, secondary, and minor mineral elements available in chelated form, a balanced nitrogen complex, and high levels of soluble carbohydrates, to enrich the soil profile and encourage microbe based mineral nutrient availability and uptake.

Our product offering decreases the heavy carbohydrate demand by turf grass to support top growth, which allows for the allocation of the carbohydrate reserve to encourage lateral growth, tillering, and other processes that contribute to improved color density, vigor, and improved root system development – even during cooler growing conditions.

Progressive Turf fertilizer can be mixed with other technical materials so that you can spray less often, and save time, labor and fuel. Progressive Turf’s superior formulations offer focused delivery of nutrients, and dramatically reduces leaching, volatilization, and other waste.

Southern Agricultural Insecticides, Inc. was started in the 1930’s headed by Hans Diem. During this time, crop dusting by hand was the most common method of pesticide application. Custom dust blends included ingredients such as Sulfur, Copper, Pyrethrin and Rotenone. Personnel and equipment was often moved between locations in Florida, South Carolina and North Carolina to maintain a year round business. The company was incorporated in 1947. John Diem joined the business after a servicing the war stateside in explosives manufacturing. SA-50 became the company’s trademark because 0.5% pyrethrin dust was the flagship product. The four blocks on the logo represented the Swiss flag. In the later part of the 1940’s the company started to distribute and formulate many of the newer products that were being developed by such companies as Bayer, Ciba, Dow and Dupont. In the 1960’s and 1970’s many of the customers were vegetable farms and feed stores. In the 1980’s, the business expanded into supplying pesticides and fertilizer products for turf, ornamental and garden centers. The company is still owned and operated by the founding family.
