YARDS & LAWNS
	According to EPA, yard waste materials usually make up about 20% of the total solid waste that goes to landfills. Seasonally this number can be as high as 80%. To reduce the amount of solid waste many people use composting. Things we can compost: grass/lawn clippings, hay, kitchen wastes, leaves, manure, straw, weeds, wood chips and sawdust. If you have tools and time, you can make a composter yourself or you can buy a manufactured one. More info >>
