Soils and Compost:

Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.

Apply a layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.

Choose organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost or aged sawdust.

Integrated Pest Management:

Develop healthy soil for plants that are vigorous and naturally pest-resistant.
