3️⃣ Ways You Can #CareForPlace This Fall⁠⁠🌲 Plant Native Trees and Shrubs:⁠Native plants require less water and maintenance. They also support local wildlife and ecosystems. Consider planting native trees and shrubs in this fall.⁠⁠ Practice Sustainable Lawn Care:⁠Mow your lawn at a higher height to encourage deep root growth and reduce the need for watering. Use a reel or electric lawnmower to reduce emissions. Avoid chemical pesticides and herbicides that can harm beneficial insects and pollinators.⁠⁠ Conserve Water:⁠As the weather cools down, reduce your lawn watering. Lawns typically need less water in the fall as temperatures drop. — from Instagram
