Did you know there are approximately 40 million acres of lawns in the US, making lawns the nation’s largest irrigated crop. We Americans certainly love our lawns, unfortunately, fertilizers and pesticides used on lawns can wash into streams and lakes when it rains. These chemicals pollute the water and harm the organisms that live in the water bodies. The chemicals can also be harmful to children and pets that play on the lawn.
The Cumberland County Soil & Water Conservation District (CCSWCD) and the Town of Freeport are offering a free YardScaping class to teach area residents about healthy lawn care on June 23rd from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at the Freeport Community Center. Participants will discover how to maintain a lawn without chemicals to protect the health of kids, pets and local streams, like Concord Gully and Frost Gully.
You will learn information about healthy lawn care and have your individual questions and concerns answered. Whether you maintain your own lawn or hire a professional, this class is for you!
Join CCSWCD for some excellent information and great conversation. Pre-registration is required. Please contact Jami Fitch or Betty Williams at the Cumberland County Soil & Water Conservation District at 892-4700 to sign up.

Fertilize your lawn. If there are bald spots, this is the best time to fix it. You can use a garden rake to scratch the loose soul. Spread the thick layer of the lawn and compact the mixture. Water every other day for two weeks.
