Garden Defense

Here you will find some tips about the many things you can do to reduce waste and conserve resources from caring for you lawn and garden equipment, to greenscaping.

1. Use food scraps, yard trimmings, and other organic waste to create a compost pile. Compost is a rich soil amendment that can help increase water retention, decrease erosion, and replace chemical fertilizers.
2. Don't over-fertilize. A slow-release organic fertilizer applied once in the fall is sufficient for most lawns.
