Reducing or eliminating the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides on your lawn is crucial for maintaining a healthy environment. Excessive use of these chemicals can lead to water pollution, harming aquatic ecosystems and potentially contaminating drinking water sources. By choosing natural alternatives and sustainable practices, you can prevent runoff and protect local wildlife. This commitment not only enhances the health of your lawn but also contributes to the overall well-being of our community and environment.
