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.

We have seen a dramatic rise in temperatures and along with that an almost 50% increase in water use. With very little rain and recharge, that use is unsustainable. We would like to remind everyone of our current water use restrictions of two days per week for sprinklers and no sprinklers on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Along with that, all other non-essential use is only allowed before 9AM and after 5PM. Please see the link for specific details. https://www.hopkintonma.gov/news_detail_T7_R126.php
