CUES from Mother NatureEnvironmental Stewardship Starts in Your Own Backyard |
Aaaaah! a bug! Kill it! Get the insecticide out; spray
the entire yard! Is this your typical reaction to wildlife in your garden?
Is it getting harder to keep the worms from eating your tomatoes even
though you've applied tons of pesticides over the years? Can't seem
to keep your birch tree healthy? Maybe it's time to try a new approach
to gardening. One that is more efficient, cheaper, less work, and friendlier
to the environment.

The CUES messageThe main goal of CUES is to convince people that environmental concerns are not confined to rainforests or the Serengeti Plains in Africa. Environmental stewardship starts in your own backyard. Sustainability promotes the concept that whether you are planting a garden, managing turf, developing parkland, or landscaping a parking lot, your management practices affect everyone. The following suggestions from CUES will help you design a sustainable, environmentally friendly landscape that also requires less work!
