save time, money, resources, your environment!
sou have ways to hunt these down, now matter where you live. research first, then get creative in your own scene. any questions? contact G'G for help to go forth and be green.

a watering option for EASIER gardens?
Love growing veggies? have a needy plant? ever go on vacation? Consider the traditional global-gardening technique of buried clay irrigation. At Gardeners'Guild they're called 'Ollas'! http://www.gardenersguild.org/waterwiseollas.htm
neem oil concentrate?
This is a biodegradable plant oil that is safe AND effective in relieving plants from all kinds of bugs, on leaves and in the soil.
coco-fiber growing pots?
Ditch the peat and go nuts for coco-fiber. Highly renewable, this material comes from coconuts and maintains both moisture and oxygen levels in soil without becoming hydrophobic as peat can.
pre-emergent (corn gluten)?
For those who have established lawns, corn gluten offers a chemical-free way to stop weeds and fertilize too. Gardeners' Guild is committed to natural solutions for urban garden areas.

Some new year's resolutions really can be easy.
