Enhance the outdoor areas of your Morris County home with the beauty and convenience of artificial grass. At the Morris County Foster Parents Association, we understand the importance of providing safe and enjoyable spaces for foster children. Artificial grass offers a low-maintenance, year-round solution that ensures a vibrant and welcoming environment without the hassle of constant upkeep. Whether you're creating a play area for children, a tranquil garden retreat, or a welcoming front yard, our artificial grass options provide durability and aesthetics that require minimal maintenance. Enjoy the look and feel of natural grass without the fuss, and spend more quality time with the children in your care, right here in Morris County.

Attention All Scouts!

If your Girl Scout or Boy Scout troop is looking for a community service project, please consider helping our kids.  There's a wide variety of activities that have made excellent projects for scout trips in the past, including our Backpack Program, Clothing/Coat Drives, Tricky Tray, Holiday Party, and Halloween Costume Drive.  And now you can earn a patch for your work with us.
