Clover Mixture for new lawn

Hello,

We have a new construction home with only dirt. The borough where we live is giving us a hard time because we don't have grass and that we still have the old "silk" fence that is used to hold back the topsoil runoff, so we're in a bit of a rush, unfortunately.

We haven't decided what to plant for our lawn (we've planted only native trees (fruit), bushes, vegetables thus far). I've heard good things about clover, but we do not want a mono-culture lawn, even though clover is better than traditional lawns (including the chemical lawns that surround us). We've also considered Eco-Lawn, but were not sure if it's native to this area.

Could someone give me an idea of what would make a good mixture of clover and grasses that we could use and where to purchase them? We are looking for native grasses to Southeastern Pennsylvania.

Thanks!

Scott
