BROCHURES
Created by the Greenscapes North Shore Coalition.
If you’d like to display any of these brochures in your community, let us know. Additional resources are available, as supplies last.
Created in the fall of 2018, we hope this brochure will inform gardeners in your community how to install a rain garden.
What is stormwater? How do we, as a developing community, impact stormwater and the watershed around us?
Here’s how! The MA Dept. of Environmental Protection has set a generous goal of no more than 65 gallons of water use per person per day. Let’s see if we can save even more.
We need to put water back in to the soil, rather than letting it run off. The more we create impervious surfaces, the more water we waste.
You could save potentially hundreds of dollars and thousands of gallons of water by making sure your irrigation system is working efficiently and not running when it’s raining, as so many do!
Learn why going organic is the healthy way to go, and how to go about transitioning from chemicals to organic!
Take the Greenscapes Pledge to care for your yard using water-conserving techniques that will provide you a beautiful, healthy yard.
