Green Tip of the week: Use Natural Decorations for the fall. Decorating with locally-grown gourds and pumpkins are a great way to reduce waste and carbon emissions. Compost gourds and pumpkins after the holiday. You can also use tree branches from your yard. Pinterest has beautiful ideas.
 
We've had a couple of perfect fall weeks for garden lessons. Please check out our blog for pictures of the kids having fun planting. https://krsgreenteam.wordpress.com
