Your answer
Choose at least three actions you will take in your yard to protect your local watershed & Lake Erie
*
SHRINK your lawn by using native plants, shrubs and trees instead
REMOVE non-native, invasive shrubs and plants
REPLACE NON-NATIVES SHRUBS and flowers with native plants to provide food and habitat for wildlife
LEAVE your leaves: compost, mulch, or use the leaves in garden beds
SAVE WATER by not watering your lawn
REDUCE POLLUTION by mowing with non-gasoline powered tools
KEEP OUT CHEMICALS - Wash your car on the lawn or at the car wash
KEEP OUT NUTRIENTS - Only fertilize after a soil test- and use organic fertilizers when you must
KEEP OUT PESTICIDES - Spot treat with pesticides only when a problem is found. Even better use boiling water or natural solutions instead!
REMOVE PAVEMENT and replace it with permeable pavement or a planted area
BUILD A RAIN GARDEN (Check with your community to ensure that a rain garden is allowed at your residence first)
INSTALL A RAIN BARREL (Check with your community to determine if permits are needed)
Required
Do you live along a waterway? Choose at least one action you will take in your yard in addition to or instead of one of the three actions above.

LEAVE A 25 FOOT BUFFER of long rooted plants along your stream (don’t mow to the edge of the creek)
ADD PLANTS to the edge of creek and bare banks with native groundcovers, shrubs, trees, and flowers
