Make good use of your lawn clippings and falling leaves by starting a composting pile this year! There is nothing better you can do for your plants and landscape than adding a layer of compost and mulch once or twice per year. It helps feed the soil, deters weeds and retains moisture!

About Growing 2 Shine
Being an avid gardener, born and raised in Indiana, I feel incredible blessed to live in sunny California & be able to grow my own food all year-round! I write a monthly garden column for the San Jose Mercury News & am constantly striving for tips & ideas on how to live a little more gently in regards to ourselves, our planet & each other – basically sustainability we can live with! As a fulltime realtor here in the Bay Area, I help my clients “Go Green” in & around their homes & communities.
