Set the Lawn Chemicals Aside!

At her website Wellness Mama, Katie Wells provides information on how you can care for your lawn organically — including info on natural fertilizers and weed prevention, native grasses, and soil aeration. Katie also explains how taking up healthy lawncare practices actually requires less lawnwork.

For example, most U.S. lawns are currently damaged by unnecessary work including over-mowing and over-watering. And of course, once it's healthy, healthier grass (as with all organisms) just doesn't require as much maintenance in the long run, anyway. Transitioning to organic lawncare is one of the easiest health conscientious transitions that can be made. Do it for all of us — the Earth is more than just your mother!
