A PLACE OF BELONGING Our Happy Valley Business Alliance was created with connection in mind. As our city began growing over 20 years ago, business owners felt a lack of connectivity with each other and with our city leaders.

The idea was to create a coalition with the intent to increase awareness of businesses, special events, and to promote a healthy business climate in Happy Valley and our surrounding communities.

As a result, our Happy Valley Business Alliance, or HVBA, was born.

Currently with over 100 members, our Alliance serves community and city leaders, small business owners, business leaders, politicians, and community members alike.

We want every business to have a voice. And we want residents to be familiar with who we are.

As one of the fastest growing cities in Oregon, our steadfast mission of awareness and connection has resulted in a deeper desire to create a place of

4

belonging. We hope this publication helps illustrate this notion and encourages a continued sense of pride in Happy Valley.

We trust that with each successful business, our community is served, and our city continues to flourish.

For those who may be new to Happy Valley, I am happy you are here and excited to share all that it has to offer. To those who have lived here for years, your invaluable contributions have allowed this community to grow and have helped create this special place we are so lucky to call home.

THE POWER OF COMMUNITY As the Mayor of Happy Valley, I am filled with an immense sense of pride and gratitude for the vibrant and tight-knit community we have here. This place is not just a location on the map. It’s a thriving community where people live, work, and come together to make it a truly wonderful place.

Throughout the year, we host countless events that bring our residents together and it’s encouraging to see our residents come together to celebrate, share stories, and build lasting connections. These events serve as a testament to our shared values and the bonds that unite us.

Businesses in Happy Valley also play a vital role in our community’s strength. They’re not just places to shop or work. They’re pillars of our local economy.

The dedication of local entrepreneurs and their support for community initiatives create a thriving environment that benefits us all.

The heart and soul of Happy Valley is its residents. Their warmth, generosity, and willingness to lend a helping hand define our city’s character.

It’s in their commitment to making this city a better place for everyone, including future generations, that our true strength as a community is found. The City’s residents are active in schools, take initiative to volunteer, and lend their voice to a vast array of City projects and happenings.

Happy Valley is indeed a place where we can proudly live, play, and raise a family. The unwavering sense of togetherness that defines our community provides the foundation for a bright future. I am proud to serve as the Mayor of Happy Valley and am committed to supporting and nurturing this extraordinary community in every way I can.

Together, we will continue to make Happy Valley a place that exemplifies the best of community living.

THE HAPPY VALLEY BUSINESS ALLIANCE Strengthening community through the lens of local business Not quite a chamber of commerce and not quite a civic group, the HVBA is a hybrid of all things Happy Valley for business owners and neighbors looking to get an inside view of what’s happening. General meetings begin with introductions, followed by a presentation on a subject that appeals to small business owners.

This might entail an economist discussing trends for the upcoming year or a career coach sharing tips on effective goal setting. The Business Spotlight helps members share information about their brick-andmortar businesses and allows those in attendance the opportunity to connect names and faces with many of the local businesses we all enjoy.

There are also updates from our Fire Chief, Police Chief, City Manager, and Parks and Recreation team.

current concerns to new developments, upcoming community events, and any public health or safety issues that might be on the horizon. We’re not aware of any other city in Oregon that has this type of model that so successfully brings together community, civic leaders, and business owners in one place.

Please join us on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 7:30 a.m. at Happy Valley City Hall. Whether you’re a local business owner or a business patron, we’d love for you to learn more about the terrific people and businesses that make this such a great place to live, work and play! We also have quarterly happy hour networking events, informal lunches at local restaurants, and support new business ribbon cuttings with the City.

BUILDING STRONGER COMMUNITIES City Committee members, philanthropic groups, and Outstanding Volunteers Throughout the course of any given year, the City receives countless hours of service, invaluable advice, and strategic guidance from volunteers in the community.

The City is fortunate to have volunteers serving on advisory committees that work tirelessly to find solutions to traffic problems, improve parks, and even explore ways to manage growth. We also acknowledge the many volunteers in our midst who roll up their sleeves to organize service projects that improve our environment, bring neighbors together, and help those in need.

Together, these groups and individuals consistently put Happy Valley first and are always willing to lend a hand.

In recognition of their contributions, the City aims to highlight volunteer service and showcase the great works of our community members. City Committee members and an inaugural group of Outstanding Volunteers were recognized just this past summer for this very reason.

By celebrating the service of our residents, the City hopes to show its appreciation and encourage others in the community to take notice and get involved. These groups and individuals are helping shape Happy Valley’s future and are a source of inspiration to us all.

Ready to get involved? Volunteers play a crucial role in helping the community thrive. Apply to be on a City Committee by heading to the City’s website or find a volunteer opportunity near you!

FOSTERING FUTURE LEADERS The City of Happy Valley works closely with North Clackamas School District (NCSD) through a partnership that extends beyond the classroom. By joining forces, the City aims to support education and offer experiences that bolster learning and help connect the community. In many ways, these opportunities augment classroom instruction and provide a way for youth to deepen their understanding of issues at both the local and national level. By further extending the partnership to include Happy Valley Parks and Recreation, Happy Valley Youth Council, and the Happy Valley Police Department, the relationship between NCSD and the City remains strong, benefitting all students and their families.

Second grade City Hall Tours are a prime example of this partnership in action. With classroom curriculum focusing on community helpers and what makes a city run, second graders from North Clackamas School District typically spend an entire unit learning about what makes a community tick. Some teachers even have their students work together in class to build a makeshift city of their own where they learn about the role of city leaders and collective needs of a community. To reinforce these concepts and help offer a hands-on learning experience, the City of

12

Happy Valley invites second grade classes from the local Happy Valley elementary schools to visit City Hall.

During the field trip, students learn about different departments and their unique responsibilities.

In Council Chambers, the class is offered an opportunity to participate in a mock City Council Meeting. The student audience acts as citizens and directs questions to a handful of their peers who play the roles of Mayor and Council. Students are encouraged to think critically about a theoretical proposed addition to the City (usually a park or other amenity) and are given some points to consider when it comes to cost and location. Led by Community Services Director, Steve Campbell and Parks and Recreation Manager, Stephani Hern, the students can see the democratic process at work and better understand how the community voice plays a vital role in helping guide decisions. The exercise offers students a way to experience, at a basic level, how the government operates.

Activities, such as this one, are important to our community youth. By engaging students early on, the City aims to establish positive connections and encourage students to be excited and inspired by the possibilities that civic involvement entails.

2 02 4 H A P P Y V A L L E Y B U S I N E S S & C O M M U N I T Y M A G A Z I N E • W W W. H V B A . B I Z

Last fall, Steve Campbell and Stephani Hern were recognized by the League of Oregon Cities at the 98th annual conference. They received the Civic Education Award which recognizes educators who have promoted local government education in Oregon Schools. Operating as a team, they have developed a broad reaching Government Awareness Program focused on early civic education for elementary-aged students, a model Youth Council program, and a diversion program for youth offenders. Their efforts have also had statewide impacts, from organizing the first annual Oregon Youth Summit in Salem to assisting other communities establish their own Youth Advisory Councils.

COFFEE AND CONVERSATION Bridging the gap between community and law enforcement

In the heart of any thriving community, a special connection exists between its residents and the dedicated law enforcement deputies sworn to protect and serve them. These deputies stand as the guardians of neighborhoods, the first responders in times of crisis, and the embodiment of safety in our daily lives. Yet, all too often, the bond between community and law enforcement remains unexplored, creating a missed opportunity to forge stronger, safer, and more unified cities. That’s why the City of Happy Valley has made it a point to help residents get to know their local public safety team. Through an array of community events and activities featuring Happy Valley deputies and Community Service Officers, the foundations of trust, collaboration, and communal well-being are able to flourish.

Coffee with a Cop is one such event that helps residents and members from the Happy Valley Police Department connect and interact. Sharing a cup of coffee with a police deputy is a unique and eye-opening experience that transcends the uniform and reinforces the sense of community. It’s a moment where residents and officers come together as partners rather than strangers, easing societal pressures that sometimes divide us. A shared cup of coffee becomes a platform for open dialogue, and a reminder that we share similar goals as we work together to build a safer and more connected community.

Ultimately, cultivating opportunities for residents and local business owners to engage law enforcement in positive ways is key to bolstering safe neighborhoods and strengthening relationships with the community. Social encounters that are less formal in nature typically lead to increased productive conversations between police officers and the communities they serve.

Happy Valley Police Chief, Rich Sheldon, said he finds that in casual settings people are often more open to speaking to law enforcement about their

14

concerns and feel more comfortable discussing things that might be on their minds. He recognizes that some residents might have questions or concerns but don’t always feel comfortable approaching him or his deputies directly. He finds that events like Coffee with a Cop help break down these barriers and give the community a chance to familiarize themselves with his team, so that when they are out and about, community members feel more at ease engaging in conversation.

“Residents may feel intimidated or think they are bothering us with a question or idea, but this isn’t so. We encourage community interactions, and we want residents, business owners, and visitors alike to feel comfortable reaching out and speaking up. In a setting like [Coffee with a Cop], we’re able to learn more about the community we serve and have some great dialogues about pressing concerns that might be at play,” Chief Sheldon said.

Other gatherings like Happy Valley’s National Night Out, Walk and Roll to School events, and even Happy Valley Business Alliance meetings, also serve to boost familiarity between law enforcement and community.

Whether over a cup of coffee or a simple conversation in passing, the Happy Valley Police Department is eager to support the community.

Through a diverse range of classes, excursions, and community events, these spaces provide numerous benefits.

Excursions enable individuals to connect with nature and explore their surroundings, promoting physical and mental well-being.

In essence, parks and recreation programs not only enhance individual well-being but also strengthen the social fabric of our communities, promoting unity and a sense of belonging among residents.

LEARN SOMETHING NEW Classes are a gateway for residents to embark on exciting journeys of learning and self-discovery. These programs offer the opportunity to acquire new skills, whether it’s mastering a new art form, improving physical fitness, or developing a hobby.

GET OUT AND ABOUT Excursions and field trips are a great way for residents to break free from their daily routines and venture into the great outdoors or visit a local business. These experiences provide the chance to explore new environments, from hiking in scenic natural landscapes to partaking in a holiday market. By participating in these outings, residents not only escape the confines of their everyday lives but also expand their horizons, fostering a deeper appreciation for the world around them.

CELEBRATE TOGETHER Community events are the heart of togetherness in any neighborhood, offering a dynamic platform for residents to celebrate holidays, embrace the seasons, and support local businesses. These gatherings bring people of all ages and backgrounds together, fostering a strong sense of unity through music, delicious food, engaging activities, and special guests. By joining these events, community members not only create lasting memories but also bolster the bonds that make their neighborhoods feel like home.

Parks and Recreation is funded via a Parks Levy which is voted on by residents every five years. This levy helps preserve and enhance recreational facilities and community parks, and provides effective and efficient programs and services for a variety of active interests.

EXPLORING ART IN HAPPY VALLEY Art plays a pivotal role in enhancing the vibrancy and cultural richness of a city. It serves as a powerful medium through which communities express their identity, emotions, and aspirations. A city adorned with art creates an inviting and inspiring atmosphere that captivates both residents and visitors. Moreover, art fosters creativity and innovation, encouraging individuals to think outside the box.

To demonstrate the significance of these ideas, City Council established a Public Art Committee in 2016 which strives to create, develop, and implement activities rooted in the arts. From seasonal banners on main roadways, roundabout features that honor wildlife, or colorful murals in the park, art is everywhere you look.

SCULPTING THE URBAN LANDSCAPE Did you know that Happy Valley City Hall has a rotating Sculpture Garden? Every two years, artists from around the Pacific Northwest are invited to show their work at several locations just outside City Hall’s front doors. These sculptures are on short-term loan to the City, allowing the Garden to exhibit many pieces over time. Each sculpture

26

holds its own unique story and meaning. Established in 2013, the Sculpture Garden Program ultimately enhances public land, enriches our cultural environment, and encourages art appreciation within the community.

Currently, the 2023-2025 Sculpture Garden exhibit is on display. The selection process was highly competitive with over 40 concepts submitted for consideration. Artists selected for the current exhibition include: • • • • •

MacRae Wylde, Hood River Milo White & Lin McJunkin, Conway, WA Mark Brody, Portland Travis Pond, Oregon City Shelly Durica-Laiche, Portland

Each artist accepted into the program is awarded an honorarium and sculptures remain for sale during the exhibition. For inquiries about sculpture purchase, please contact City Hall.

EXPLORING ART IN HAPPY VALLEY The Public Art Committee seeks to exhibit art of quality through an inclusive process that welcomes both emerging artists and artists of greater experience. Similarly, the public is invited to attend Art Committee meetings and participate as a volunteer in public art programming. By incorporating all voices, the City aims to showcase a diverse array of artistic expressions that are reflective of our growing community.

Public art is one of many tools used for increasing equity, developing welcoming outdoor spaces, and reinforcing a strong community identity.

SAFE AND SOUND: SAFETY SERVICES IN HAPPY VALLEY HAPPY VALLEY POLICE In Happy Valley, we have a dedicated team of deputies who keep the community safe via 24/7 patrols, educational programs, and community outreach. Their engagement with the public, whether interacting with citizens, business owners or students, demonstrates their commitment to working together to maintain the safety of the community.

Getting to know your neighbors is often the best way to help prevent crime and a sense of community in a neighborhood is an invaluable resource to police. Call 9-1-1 anytime you see suspicious activity or a crime in progress. You can also call the non-emergency number at 503-655-8211 to provide information or make a report.

Police services are provided through a contract with the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) and are funded entirely by a special Public Safety Levy which is voted on by residents every five years. Through this partnership and annual contract with the CCSO, the City maintains local control and identity of our police, and ultimately saves the tax-payer money since it can utilize many of the same services this larger law enforcement agency provides. Having access to quality safety assurance is vital and is what ensures police can respond quickly to emergencies when someone calls for help.

CLACKAMAS FIREFIGHTERS Clackamas Fire District (CFD) #1 is one of the largest fire protection districts in Oregon.

With nearly 300 career and volunteer firefighter/EMS support personnel behind them, CFD #1 focuses on keeping the public safe, both through emergency response and community education.

They have garnered a statewide reputation for hiring the best-educated fire service professionals in the field and for conducting comprehensive training programs that other districts seek to emulate. Some of their specialty areas, such as their outstanding swift water rescue team, confined space rescue, and innovative approach to managing their self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), have attracted nationwide attention, and set new standards for skill and leadership in the fire service.

Whether they are taking the lead during fire or providing emergency medical care, the perseverance of our Clackamas Fire District #1 firefighters is a true testament to the caliber of services they provide.

DELIVERING JOY TO LOCAL SENIORS

In the spirit of giving and making connections, Happy Valley Parks and Recreation and the Happy Valley Library have partnered on a heartwarming initiative to make Valentine’s Day extra special for some of the senior citizens in the City. Through creativity and compassion, they bring smiles to the faces of our beloved seniors with handmade cards created by local students, library patrons, and caring residents of Happy Valley. A now annual tradition, the project forges connections between generations and fosters a sense of community across the lifespan.

To participate, community members simply make a small greeting card or two. Complimentary supply kits coordinated by Parks and Recreation and the Library include festive construction paper and other adornments that participants use to create sweet messages of hope and warmth. The cards vary

30

in style, from classic red and pink hearts to more contemporary layouts that showcase the diversity of artistic talent within the community.

As Valentine’s Day approaches, the Parks and Recreation team, along with an enthusiastic junior volunteer dubbed the “Love Bug,” visit local senior living centers, memory care facilities, and retirement communities. Equipped with armfuls of handmade cards, they embark on a mission to brighten the day of each senior they encounter. The excitement and anticipation in the air are palpable as they make their rounds. The seniors, many of whom look forward to special activities, are often overwhelmed by the love and thoughtfulness behind each card. They are a tangible reminder that they too are very much connected to the Happy Valley community.

The impact of this initiative goes beyond the cards

themselves. It creates lasting memories and, in many ways, helps bridge the generation gap. The shared stories, laughter, and conversations that take place during these visits between residents, staff, and volunteers create a sense of belonging and unity for everyone involved.

Of course, this tradition does more than benefit seniors. Those making the cards as well as those part of the delivery process gain something, too.

Offering a helping hand fosters a sense of purpose, empathy, and a better understanding of those around us. For generations to spend time together is crucial. These valuable opportunities for shared experiences create a lasting impact and with each kind message of love and appreciation for seniors, our community certainly grows stronger.

VOICES OF RESILIENCE: TEENS BREAKING THE SILENCE ON MENTAL HEALTH Happy Valley’s annual Youth Town Hall is a dynamic initiative that serves as a platform for engaging and amplifying the voices of the younger generation within the community. It is coordinated by Happy Valley’s Youth Council and designed to foster open dialogue and collaboration, providing a space for teens to express their perspectives and concerns. By facilitating direct communication between local youth and community leaders, the event aims to ensure that the unique needs and ideas of the younger demographic are considered.

At the town hall this past fall, the group explored the critical themes of teen wellness and mental health, recognizing the pivotal role these factors play in the lives of young residents. While organized by the Youth Council, the event was thoughtfully guided by mental health experts that included representatives from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and Clackamas County Mental Health. This ensured a well-informed and supportive approach to addressing the vital yet sensitive issues at hand.

In addition to tangible statistics, hearing from young adults with lived experiences often has a profound impact on teens and sheds light on shared experiences. Nicole, one of the event’s presenters, talked about how she faced

32

significant obstacles growing up, missing so many classes that she probably skipped half of her high school career.

She emphasized the importance of talking about feelings and finding someone who will listen, urging individuals to persist in speaking up until someone does. As she now pursues her Ph.D., her story is a testament to challenging the negative stigma so fiercely tied to mental illness.

Jen’s presentation provided another perspective on the struggles many teens face. Plagued by anxiety, sadness, and discomfort in expressing her feelings, she experienced isolation and severe self-doubt during her high school years, turning to self-harm as a way to cope. She would have continued to decline if it wasn’t for someone close to her, who discovered what was going on and helped her seek treatment. Her story was a reminder that reaching out to a friend not only demonstrates care and empathy but can literally save a life. Now, working at the Oregon YouthLine, Jen is helping others and showing that having even just one healthy connection can change someone’s life trajectory.

Ensuring teens have the knowledge and tools to support themselves and their peers is crucial in maintaining a focus on conversations about mental health. By actively providing opportunities for connection and education,

2 02 4 H A P P Y V A L L E Y B U S I N E S S & C O M M U N I T Y M A G A Z I N E • W W W. H V B A . B I Z

the City is playing a pivotal role in reshaping community perspectives on these critical issues. Highlighting its significance, the Youth Council has forged partnerships with youth from across the state to broaden and extend these crucial conversations. Empowering local teens to be leaders in mental health advocacy, the goal is to keep these discussions at the forefront, encouraging a culture where seeking help is normalized, and collective well-being is prioritized. As the community embraces this proactive approach, it is the resilient voices of the youth that will continue to advocate for positive change and inspire a healthier, more supportive environment for everyone.

If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, please reach out for help. Call or text 988 or chat online at 988lifeline.org. Teens can also contact the YouthLine for crisis support by calling 877.968.8491 or texting teen2teen to 839869. Remember, you are not alone, and help is available.

66% of youth say friends and classmates are the ones they turn to first when they are feeling sad or having a problem. 15% of youth said they don’t have anyone to turn to. *This data was obtained from the Oregon Student Health Survey (SHS), a collaborative effort with the Oregon Department of Education to improve the health and wellbeing of all Oregon students. The SHS is a comprehensive, school-based, anonymous, and voluntary health survey of 6th, 8th and 11th graders conducted in even-numbered years. According to Youth Town Hall presenter, Jamie Zentner, Senior Program Planner at Clackamas County’s Public Health Division, this data is telling. Not only are students experiencing anxiety and depression, but their use of e-cigarettes, marijuana, and alcohol is correlated. This means talking about mental health and helping youth find the right intervention is crucial. Learn more about the SHS at www.Oregon.gov.

EDUCATION: AN INSIDER PERSPECTIVE, NOW LOOKING FROM THE OUTSIDE

RENÉ CANLER, HAPPY VALLEY BUSINESS ALLIANCE PRESIDENT

A FORMER SCHOOL PRINCIPAL ON CONNECTION BETWEEN COMMUNITY AND EDUCATION As your current Happy Valley Business Alliance (HVBA) Board President, I had the privilege of interviewing three school principals serving in our Happy Valley Community who impact our community.

There never seems to be enough time as a principal and I have nothing but love and respect for these former colleagues who took time out of their day to talk about their schools and reveal their perceptions as the community leaders and advocates that they are.

No longer in education, I served as a school principal for ten years. Understanding how the system functions is one thing, learning how the world around the system functions is another. It’s been eye opening to have an insider perspective, while being an outsider looking in. This curiosity led me to ask these principals about their school community, the impact of the recent levy passing, and their school needs.

of the city. This is where our future leaders are coming from, and where our current leaders can come and interact with students.”

That is a goal you will find in unique school leaders: supporting a school culture to impact the broader community. The result of our youth realizing their impact creates an internal confidence that inspires and reminds the adults around them of their own worth.

PARTICIPATING IN SCHOOL EVENTS MAKES SCHOOL IMPORTANT IN THE EYES OF THE YOUTH

THE SCHOOLHOUSE MUST BE THE EPICENTER OF THE COMMUNITY

Principal Alison Schlicht stands tall in front of Beatrice Morrow Cannady Elementary School. Every day is an opportunity for growth, learning, and building community.

Oregon Supreme Court Justice Adrienne C. Nelson addresses the crowd while Principal Greg Harris applauds.

The community has a significant impact on its schools. Learning about the community and school culture is one of the first things a principal gauges when deciding how to best support that community’s youth. The wisdom is knowing that the community school is a microcosm of its community.

However, what’s truly inspiring is the opposite: witnessing the power of the school impacting its community.

Adrienne C. Nelson High School Principal Greg Harris mentioned an example of this when saying, “schools should be community centers, the heartbeat

34

Principal Emily Behunin discussed the importance of community spirit at Verne Duncan Elementary School. Not only is the school named after a North Clackamas School District community member, its proximity to (then) Rock Creek Middle School (and now) Nelson High School, provides an opportunity for the younger elementary school students to see their older contemporaries in leadership roles.

Principal Alison Schlicht mentioned school and PTO events at Beatrice Morrow Cannady Elementary School that support their broader community. Food drives and the school’s backpack program, as well as yearly donations to the Wichita Center and the Lions Club allow community members to be reminded that their community loves them.

When the community is allowed to participate in its school, the school will impact its community.

2 02 4 H A P P Y V A L L E Y B U S I N E S S & C O M M U N I T Y M A G A Z I N E • W W W. H V B A . B I Z

IS THE LEVY WORTH ITS INVESTMENT? “The levy is a clear indicator that our community supports education,” Principal Harris commented on the impact the passing of the levy had on Nelson High School. All three principals mentioned how the levy failing on the ballot would have resulted in staffing losses, potentially creating larger class sizes.

Many in our community questioned the levy and wondered if the additional funds were worth the investment. Members of our HVBA wondered the same. As a result, we invited the North Clackamas School District to present at our September 2023 meeting and discuss the levy’s impact. These representatives included the Superintendent, Dr. Shay James; Assistant Superintendents Cindy Detchon and Dr. Ivonne Dibblee; Community Relations Director, Curtis Long; as well as Board Member, Mitzi Bauer.

It is encouraging to see our HVBA meetings continuing to be conduits of information for our community at large. I’m grateful for the transparency from the district.

CREATE COMMUNITY THROUGH YOUR PRESENCE

Principal Emily Behunin

“Reach out and become involved,” reminds Principal Behunin. “Volunteer at any of our events, participate in a night out at local restaurants,” says Principal Schlicht.

No matter your strength, the reminder is to participate in your child’s education through your voice and through your actions. As Principal Harris reminds us, “One way the community can support is to give teachers and staff that positive feedback.”

Show up. Be bold. Be present.

“It’s no longer their child, it’s now their home.” From school principal to mortgage advisor, René Canler isn’t just your Happy Valley Business Alliance Board President, his experience is unlike any loan officer you may meet. Bicultural, bilingual Boricua raised in the city of Chicago, RENÉ CANLER René supports his native English and HVBA President Spanish speakers into the homes of their dreams.

You Can Help Prevent Water Pollution Keeping your lawn free of weeds involves many choices—some are hazardous to our families, pets, and waterways.

Safest Annually aerate, de-thatch and over-seed bare spots in the spring.

This will keep the lawn dense and healthy, which keeps out weeds.

Use a long-handled weed removal tool for easy weed removal.

Fertilize only in fall with a slow release fertilizer, if at all.

Next Best If you choose a weed or insect control product, look for the OMRI label which helps identify less hazardous chemicals. Always read and follow the label, as even natural/organic products can be harmful. Only apply products when multiple dry days are forecast.

Spot spray only the individual weeds you really can’t live with!

Important Measures You Can Take Do not apply pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers under windy conditions, or when rain, snow or hail is predicted within the next 48 hours.

Consider hiring an ECOBIZ certified landscaper!
