15 Customized Urban Grower Applications Farmers make the decisions to be responsible and efficient with their farms, all the while being tied to economics and environmentally sound choices. The choices in agriculture are being made because layering of good practices is becoming beneficial. All of the products used in this farm application could & should be certified organic. Reducing chemicals sometimes has to be a choice, then elimination of them will follow as we educate ourselves.
16 Evaluation tool establishing a starting point
17 Life is about making responsible choices There are great options. This has no place Environmentally safe choices Deterrents such as Hot Pepper Wax, trapping (over 50 on our farm), Neem Oil (primary insecticide), Milky Spore & diatomaceous earth would be my choice to replace Seven Dust

19 We Need to Keep This Natural Resource Beautiful like this Northern MI should be proud of their agricultural heritage. The responsible practices that are being used by a high percentage of our farmers should translate to homeowners. Chateau Chantal Resort
20 We know the problems & have outlined some solutions. Agricultural Biosolids are a tool. Create the opportunity to use these tools in urban agricultural and small farm settings. Development of new products as well as testing can create this path of opportunity for recycling in many directions. We are currently failing to send the right messages on product development as well as food safety.
