The Chesapeake Club is encouraging homeowners to plant more plants. Why? Planting more plants reduces storm water runoff, cleans the water and air, reduces the amount of fertilizer runoff (less lawn, less fertilizer) and creates a home for wildlife. Plus it's just prettier and more interesting! So take the pledge to plant more plants! Go to:
