I always make a LOT of resolutions each year. It's a great practice for me, and although I don't always keep every single resolution, I do find that having a list helps keep me on track. I make resolutions about money, health, relationships and, of course, about how I want to take care of the planet.
For the coming year, I resolve to practice more BARE NAKED GARDENING!
Be kind to the planet - everything you do in your garden affects all others
A void overwatering - it's a waste of money and bad for the environment
Reduce storm water runoff - it pollutes local waterways
Enhance your soil naturally - use organic fertilizers and soil additives Bare naked gardening in DC
Nix the noxious products- choose eco-friendly options
Add some mulch - mulch retains moisture while adding nutrients
Keep a compost pile - it's a valuable and free source of fertilizer
Encourage beneficials - worms and pollinating insects are good
Determine your site conditions - work with mother nature, not against her Bare Naked Gardening in DC
Get outside! - gardening is good for the body and good for the soul.
Avoid indiscriminate pesticide use - choose eco-friendly options
Raise your mower blade to 3 inches- you'll have a healthier lawn
Don't sweep clippings or fertilizer into storm drains- they pollute waterways
Eliminate weeds by hand pulling, hoeing and spot treating
Nurture local wildlife - provide food, shelter and safe conditions for local wildlife
Install rain barrels - rain barrels conserve water and prevent runoff
Naturalize your landscape - choose native plants
Grass-cycle - mulch your grass clippings and return them to your yard
