Tip 84 - Clean the snow
Happy Christmas!
Winter is here, and that means cleaning the snow off your walkways.
Did you know that using salt on your walkways is not very good for your plants or their soil?
Salt mining could be reduced if we didn’t require so much salt, and that could reap benefits for the environment.
Most times you will not need salt, but you’ll need to act early. If you clean off the snow before people get a chance to walk on it, you will be fine and the snow will come off easily.
Try it this winter and see how much less salt you’ll use.
