Pesticides and Herbicides

It is our goal to provide healthy and sustainable support to your gardens and yard plants — to that end we are extremely reluctant to use herbicides or pesticides that are not supporting the biosphere. We recommend avoiding chemical deterrents. However, certain rare cases there is no other option, and we are cautiously careful to use as little as possible.

Here is a recommendation and links from Drugwatch; a free web resource committed to ensuing the safety of families and providing vital health information:

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is one of the most commonly used herbicides in the world by commercial gardeners. It is found to be highly toxic and can cause many short-term and long-term health effects. Not to mention it can be harmful to important pollinators such as honey bees.

To help educate those in the farming and gardening industries about this toxic chemical, we've created two comprehensive guides. They cover things like what it is used for, symptoms, and possible health risks. Please take a look:
