Growing Greener: Tips on Sustainable Gardening

Many gardeners are interested in providing beauty in the landscape and food for their homes in a manner that promotes environmental stewardship. Whether it includes providing pollinator resources, growing food organically, or creating a sanctuary for wildlife, gardeners are often leading the charge to promote environmental sustainability. However, some practices we commonly perform may undercut our overall sustainability goals. Issues related to usage of plastics, nutrients & chemicals, growing media, and plant selection will be explored along with potential solutions which offer greater sustainability.
