In the world of gardening, going green has never been more important. Here's a roundup of eco-friendly products and practices that can help you create a sustainable garden and lawn while supporting local biodiversity.
Eco-Friendly Lawn Care
Adopting smart watering techniques, such as watering deeply but less frequently, is crucial for conserving water. Aim for about 1 to 1.5 inches per week including rainfall to avoid waste. Opt for natural or organic fertilizers rather than synthetic chemicals, and mow high with sharp blades to keep your grass healthy and reduce stress. Manage weeds and pests naturally through integrated pest management, and let grass grow a bit longer to promote a more resilient lawn [1][3][4][5]. Alternatives like clover can also help reduce mowing and fertilizer needs.
Compost Bins
Compost bins are an excellent way to recycle organic waste, turning it into nutrient-rich compost that can enrich your soil naturally, improving soil health and reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. Composting also reduces landfill waste and lowers greenhouse gas emissions by diverting food scraps and yard debris that would otherwise produce methane when landfilled [general knowledge].
Butterfly Gardens
Butterfly gardens are a delightful addition to any eco-friendly garden. They involve planting native flowering plants that provide nectar for adult butterflies and host plants for their caterpillars. This supports local pollinator biodiversity, as native plants require less water and care, and better sustain the local ecosystem [3].
