Why Natural is Better
Organic gardening uses methods found in nature to build healthy, sustainable plants without using chemicals that are harmful to humans, animals, and the environment. While reaching for chemical fertilizers may seem like a quick fix, in time they poison the land, create a dependency on their use, and are dangerous for adults, children, and pets. Chemicals from fertilizers are made from non-renewable resources and petroleum products. These chemicals deplete the soil and are found in our homes, rivers, and streams.
The Environmental Protection Agency has warned that chemicals found in synthetic fertilizers may be harmful to your nervous system, skin, eyes, and may even be cancer causing agents. Children living in homes using these chemicals are at higher risks for asthma, childhood leukemia, and brain cancer. The simple solution to avoid these risks is to Go Organic!
More on Organic Lawn and Garden Care Organic lawn and garden care has been labeled as an “alternative” or “luxury,” even though it is the way people have gardened for centuries. Due to the damage caused by our “modern” methods of lawn and garden care, more people are realizing that the status quo can not continue. Organic gardening uses techniques we learn from nature to build healthy soil and plants that are naturally resistant to disease and pests, which means less money and maintenance for you!
For the Lawn:
- Set your mower to a high setting
- Leave grass clippings on the lawn
- Water infrequently and deeply
For the Vegetable Garden
- Use a soil amendment such as Nitron A-35
- Start a compost pile to reduce waste and add organic material back to the soil
- Practice companion planting-some plants have a symbiotic relationship and help each other grow
For Flower Gardening and Herb Gardening
- Use natural pest control such as Diatomaceous Earth and pest-repelling flowers such as marigolds.
- Start your herbs from seeds to ensure they are without chemicals
- Mulching keeps weeds out and retains water in the soil
