LANDSCAPING: Don’t use chemicals, try this weedblocker!

November 13, 2007

Stop! Don’t spray those chemicals on your yard…year after year! Four years ago we put down a biodegradable weed blocking solution just under the soil of our planters. As a result we have not seen weed for four years. Further, we have not noticed any water runoff as a result either. Check out a more eco-friendly alternative to using chemicals for your backyard or front yard landscaping efforts!
