recycling in the garden?

Absolutely! Did you know that twelve percent of the matter going to landfills daily is yard waste?

Here is a comprehensive program of easy, fun and effective methods to reuse your yard and kitchen waste and reduce the amount that would otherwise end up in the garbage.

You're probably familiar with the three Rs: reduce, reuse, and recycle. Now it's time to meet the fourth R: rot!

When the three Rs join the fourth R in the outdoors, the result saves tons of waste from the landfill, saves you money, and saves the environment.

Composting
Do the rot thing! Here are the whys, the whats and the hows of this simple – and ancient – method of returning organic matter back to the earth.

Worm Composting
Turn kitchen scraps into rich organic compost - with a little help from a boxful of wiggly friends.

Grasscycling
Grass clippings are a major component of the yard waste buried in landfills - but your lawn needs that cut grass! Learn how to return valuable nutrients to the soil every time you mow, as well as other useful turf tips.

Xeriscape
Different landscape plantings make different demands on natural resources. Here's how to create a garden that's as environmentally conscious as you are.
