Your Weekly Green is Back!

So happy to get back to sharing tips on how we can all lend a hand in taking care of the environment. 

Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year, with it's vibrant colors and crisp, cool temps. One way we can better handle the bounty of falling leaves is to consider starting a compost pile or bin in your backyard. You do not need to have a big yard or garden to compost. This will help clean up your yard and it will help enrich the soil so it will not need so many fertilizers or pesticides for your grass and garden come the warmer months!
