    What is Fossil Free Landscaping ?

    Fossil Free Landscaping is landscaping sans the heavy use of fossil fuels. We often choose electric tools or hand tools that run on orange juice and toast.

    Here are two images of the what Fossil Free Landscaping is not. Talk about inputs and outputs, how about using hand tools instead of the old mow, blow and go mind / tool set and leaving leaves instead of hauling them away? Why else would they be called leaves?

    With Fossil Free Landscaping we consider our carbon footprint as we go.
