Filled with some ideas to maintain an enviornmentally friendly and beautiful yard, this article features a number of great ideas that are easy and cost efficent. Learn some new things along the way, did you know that planting a tree will help to reduce the amount you will need to water, and also improve the quality of your soil. Very interesting and informative read.

Key Takeaways:

  • Additionally, they may lack humus. Humus is organic matter that has been broken down and that has no cellular structural shape or form.
  • Compacted soils do not readily absorb water during rains, resulting in excessive runoff into streets, streams, and rivers, which adds to flooding dangers.
