Did you know your lawn fertilizer could be polluting local waterways?

Nutrients from fertilizers wash off lawns and into our rivers, ponds, and streams, causing harmful algae growth and degrading water quality.

But a few simple changes can make a big impact:

🌱 Apply fertilizer only when necessary and with the manufacturer-recommended amount
🌱 Don’t apply fertilizer on rainy or windy days
🌱 Use phosphorous-free fertilizers
🌱 Avoid applying fertilizer close to waterways

Remember to fertilize responsibly this season!
