Salmon Friendly Lawns and Gardens in Benton County

The Benton County Environmental Issues Advisory Committee invites you to make your lawns and gardens salmon friendly.

That's not to say we're expecting a coho to come calling (other than perhaps for an occasional barbeque), but rather that we want the rainfall and irrigation water that runs off of our residential areas to be conducive to a healthy fish population in our streams and rivers.

To do your part, follow the link below to suggestions that apply to your outdoor activities. Then visit www.healthylawns.org/act to receive your Healthy Lawns Ladybug decal which you can post to promote our efforts in Benton County.

Thank You
