Happy Earth Day to you

Today is Earth Day, the day we put saving the planet into the forefront. Horizon Landscape Company has always been committed to keeping the earth green in a safe and responsible manner.  Long before the State of NJ set regulations regarding the composition of fertilizers, Horizon Landscape began using products without phosphorus.  We are proud to introduce  Holganix, a completely organic lawn care system, to our list of services.  If you would like to know more about Holganix, please click here.

Our lawn care maintenance packages are designed around your exact needs.  We won’t sell you a broad-based treat-it-whether-you-need-it-or-not maintenance plan.  Our pesticide applicators are licensed and fully trained in proper application and pesticide safety, and we adhere strictly to all state and federal regulations regarding the use of chemical products.  Our landscape construction plans are designed to protect the natural environment, and our irrigation products are chosen to reduce water usage.  It is our duty to protect the Earth – after all, we live here, too.

All this week, there have been a number of websites dedicated to Earth Day, which I thought you might enjoy.  The Earth Day Network Footprint Calculator lets you take a fun interactive quiz to see how your lifestyle affects the planet, and steps you can take to reduce the impact.  For those who are active gardeners and would like to explore the wonders of composting, here’s a good site to get you started.  And for everyday ‘go-green’ tips, yahoo!green is lots of fun, too.

Our planet is an amazing place to live, and rest assured, Horizon Landscape Company will continue to treat every day like Earth Day.
