Smart gardening is an easy way to get a great looking yard while helping to keep the County a nice place to live. Yard waste disposed in landfills diminishes their capacity and creates methane.
Home-made compost is a valuable resource for nourishing your yard. When you practice smart gardening, you conserve water, improve your home landscape, recycle organic waste, and help preserve the environment. These simple practices do not take much time, and help to foster a healthy, beautiful lawn and garden.
