Why should we consider how we care for our yards and parks? Because caring for our land in a natural way supports the delicate interconnection of all living things. When we work in partnership with nature instead of fighting nature, we can reduce our negative impact on the planet. Fortunately, creating beautiful, natural outdoor spaces that protect our water, our health, and wildife does not have to be time-consuming or costly and does not require the use of pesticides or herbicides.
