Dormancy isn’t neglect; it’s plant physiology.
When lawns rest, roots recover, and soil life stabilizes. Intervening during this period doesn’t help long-term health.
Sometimes the most sustainable choice is doing nothing. 🌱
#Environment #ProtectOurPlanet #SustainableLiving #GoodNeighborIowa
Pesticides not only target weeds and pests but also harm plants, pollinators, soil microbes, and water systems. Even minimal exposure can disrupt non-target species. Reducing chemical use on lawns supports ecosystems, healthier soil, cleaner water, and thriving pollinators.

Breakups are hard. This one was necessary.
Just because it lasted a long time doesn't mean it was healthy.
