According to Citylab, “The dye is marketed as safe and nontoxic. Landscapers typically charge by the square foot to apply the paint, and once it dries, the color won’t run. Prices vary but typically range from 25 cents to 35 cents per square foot of grass. On average, a 500-square-foot lawn is likely to cost $175 for a fresh coat of green paint.”

If you’re interested, here are a few companies that either sell a business opportunity or a lawn painting franchise:
