Cleaner, Quieter Landscaping workshops for professionals (May 8) and residents (May 9)

[Ricki Pappo]

I am sharing information that is both timely and on the Resilient Lexington newsletter (from Maggie Peaard) as there are two landscaping events coming up on May 8, for professional landscapers, and May 9 for Homeowners. Please share the flyer attached with your landscaper and if you are your own landscaper, consider attending the May 9 virtual webinar on how to green your landscaping equipment.
