Keep your grass green, but not our lakes and streams! Fertilizer is a "growing" problem for lakes, rivers, and streams, especially if it's not used carefully. Be mindful when applying – read labels, apply properly, and NEVER apply before a rain storm! Fertilizer and herbicides can easily wash off of your lawn and into a nearby storm drain or waterbody, which can contribute to algae growth and poor water quality. Consider switching to slow-release and phosphorus-free fertilizers to help improve our waters.
