The first fall rain is just around the corner!

Taking a few minutes to clean up leaves, litter, and yard debris now helps keep them out of storm drains when the rainy season begins.

Try these simple tips:

🍂 Use leaves and grass clippings as mulch around plants.
🌱 Add yard trimmings to your compost pile or green waste bin.
💧 Sweep excess yard debris away from streets and storm drains.

A little preparation today helps protect local waterways tomorrow.

National Honey Bee Day is almost here! 🐝

Healthy pollinator gardens help bees thrive and support cleaner waterways.

Choosing native plants and using Integrated Pest Management practices (like using ladybugs to eat aphids) are simple ways to create a bee-friendly garden and prevent polluted runoff from pesticides.
