An Eco-friendly approach to Growing Healthy Roses

The variety of roses we can grow in the Bay Area is astounding, and roses can provide nearly year-round blooms in our gardens. But this long growing period also means pests have more time to develop. Learn how to prevent and manage rose diseases and insect pests with an eco-friendly approach, as many pesticides can harm more than help. Plus, get advice on fertilizing and watering specific to where we live.

“Fred & Izzy Say Let’s Play Protect the Bay”

A new interactive game developed by the Clean Water Program’s Public Information & Participation Subcommittee, can be played online at www.cleanwatergame.com.

The game is based on a printed brochure, “The Bay Begins at Your Front Door.” Players identify scenes that either cause water pollution or protect water from harm from pesticides, litter, runoff, car care practices and more.

Test your pollution prevention skills and have fun!
