Saving the Bay through education,
advocacy, litigation, and restoration.

Take the Gardeners Pledge

The PLEDGE:

As a Gardener for the Bay, I will:

Conserve water by diverting runoff downspouts and paved surfaces to rain barrels, rain gardens, or garden beds.
Plant with native, non-invasive species that are adapted to conditions in my area.
Enrich my garden beds and lawn naturally with compost, leaf mold, or other organic matter.
Eliminate my use of toxic chemicals (synthetic chemical fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides).
Reduce my lawn area by planting native trees and shrubs and enlarging garden beds.
Encourage other gardeners to join the fight to protect and restore the waterways, farmlands and forests for the Bay Region.
Speak out for decisive action to save the Chesapeake Bay a national treasure.

Remember to consult with your local garden center to find solutions that are environmentally best for your yard.

* I support clean water and a healthy environment. I pledge to avoid toxic chemicals, reduce runoff and care for my garden and lawn naturally.
