Aeration simply means removing small cores of soil from the lawn, which breaks up the ground around the grass roots so that moisture and nutrients can flow into the soil to feed the lawn. If you don't aerate, then the ground becomes compacted and hard, and you may begin to notice that the grass thins and dies out in response.
When I was young, I loved helping my mother in the garden. Our yard was filled with plants and flowers that she kept in immaculate condition. Once I was an adult and bought my first home, I learned that there was much more to landscaping a yard than I ever imagined!
