SHOULD THE

Did you know that more than 30% of our
household garbage is compostable organics?
Expensive to collect and difficult to dispose of.

hedge trimmings, iawn clippings, weeds and
leaves can be composted or mulched insteac,
easily and simply, ee your own backyard.
Purchased bins, homemade bins, or stockpiles of
materials for a wondertully efficient technique
called sheet mulching - they all work.

Vhichever method you choose, you'll be saving
more than just money. Emaesegiae - less financial
and environmental damage from hauling the
material (fewer collection vehicles on the road
means healthier air and quieter communities);
an extended life for our landfill; and a
healthy, nutrient-rich and cost-effective growina
medium for our gardens.

What could make more sense than that?

So keep it around - you'll be glad you did.
