er beds, lawn and more! The Saskatchewan Waste Reduction Council offers further information to help
determine which household composting style works best for you as

Nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, are returned to the soil. This reduces the cost and
work of fertilizing. As well, it prevents fertilizer runoff from polluting lakes and streams.
Returns organic matter to the soil– The organic matter increases the ability of the soil to hold
water. As well, the organic matter feeds earthworms which aerate the soil. Reduces water
consumption– The clippings act as mulch, protecting grass roots from the sun and reducing having to
water your lawn as often. You save money and effort by not raking. Reduces work– You don’t have to
rake. And you don’t have to water or fertilize as often. There’s more time to enjoy our beautiful
Saskatchewan summers. Reduces pollution– Using an electric or manual push mower to reduce the
amount of hydrocarbons produced by a gas-powered mower. Increase your fitness– Get some exercise by
using a manual push mower, use muscles ordinarily not used and enjoy the sounds of nature. How to
Grasscycle Mow your lawn regularly Mow the lawn when it is dry Remove no more than 1/3 of the
length of the blades of grass Keep the mower blade(s) sharp Just let the mower spread the clippings
evenly on the lawn. They will settle in quickly and will disappear in a day or two. Waste &
