Thanks for posting on this important issue! Some other ways we've tried to go green recently include upgrading our vehicles (biofuel trucks, fuel efficient/hybrid cars); finding a recycling center that accepts used plastic plant pots (we go through a ton!); and installing low-voltage LED landscape lighting whenever possible so our clients can enjoy their outdoor spaces into the evening without wasting energy. Also, we encourage consumers to make sure their landscapers are accredited by NOFA and follow all of their standards for organic and sustainable landcare.
