Rage Against the White Lawn Flags

3/10/2015

1 Comment

 
In a few weeks, our community will begin waving little white and yellow flags around the edge of lawns everywhere.  These little flags let you know that toxic fertilizers and pesticides have been sprayed and poured on the yard…all in the name of “nice” grass. 
Picture
It’s a tradition all across the country.  More than 3 million tons of fertilizers are dumped onto yards in the US every year.  Another 30,000 tons of pesticides are put on yards each year.  All of these chemicals put pets, kids, the environment and water cleanliness at risk.   

Don’t surrender your yard to the white lawn flag. 

Instead, take the YARD DETOX Challenge, and give your lawn the spa treatment with natural, organic compost.  Compost can feed your grass better than fertilizers, and over several seasons make your lawn more healthy, drought tolerant and beautiful. 

Instead of using pesticides to manage pests, add native flower and plants to protect the look and quality of your yard.  

It’s never easy to get started.  So to help you, we’ve developed YARD DETOX kits to get you on the road to sustainability.  A description of each kit is available on our online store.
