Information
- Plant native plants: Native plants provide biodiversity and require less maintenance and water to thrive. See PA Department of Agriculture for native plant suggestions.
- Mulch your grass clippings: Grass clippings are a source of nitrogen fertilizer. Let them decompose on your lawn and never blow them into the street.
- Use chemicals sparingly: When spreading fertilizer, use it sparingly to ensure the excess does not overflow into runoff when rain comes.
- Pick up pet waste: Pick up, bag, and dispose of pet waste properly to prevent unhealthy bacteria from flowing into local waterways.
