🐝 Buzzing with Life: How Your Yard Waste Can Save Pollinators
In striving for the most attractive yards, we often overlook the environmental costs. Yard debris, typically seen as waste, is actually a crucial source of nutrients for our soil and a haven for the eggs of essential pollinators like butterflies, moths, and native bees. Instead of discarding leaves, consider these eco-friendly alternatives:
Composting: Create a compost pile in a secluded area of your yard, securing the leaves with sticks to prevent them from scattering.
Leaf Mulching: Spread leaves over your gardens or flower beds to enrich the soil, aiding your vegetable's growth.
Lawn Mulching: Use a mower to mulch the leaves directly on the lawn, which nourishes the soil, although it might harm the egg masses.
Seasonal Disposal: Postpone disposing of yard waste until temperatures consistently reach around 50 degrees, allowing pollinators to emerge.
Enhancing Pollinator Habitats: Incorporate native plants like Butterfly milkweed, New England aster, and Black-eyed Susan to create a pollinator-friendly yard.
For additional insights, stay connected with the city’s Natural Resources division on Facebook.

❄️ Travel Alert: Geauga County Faces Winter Storm Watch with Blustery Conditions Saturday Night into Sunday
Just in case you need to head south into Geauga County…
In a recent announcement, the National Weather Service in Cleveland has placed Geauga County under a winter storm watch, affecting cities like Chardon, South Russell, Bainbridge, Chesterland, Middlefield, and Burton. The watch is a precaution against potential heavy lake-effect snow anticipated from late Saturday to late Sunday. Depending on the evolving weather conditions, this watch may escalate to a winter weather advisory or a winter storm warning, especially given that heavy snowfall of at least 6 inches is expected within the next 18 to 48 hours.
The forecast suggests that northern Geauga County could see three to six inches of snow, a significant amount compared to other parts of northeastern Ohio, where less than two inches is expected. Surrounding areas like eastern Cuyahoga, southern Lake, and Ashtabula Counties might receive one to three inches of snow. The anticipated weather conditions could make travel challenging, particularly in the snowbelt regions, where blustery winds could lead to patchy blowing snow and significantly reduced visibility.
TRIVIA QUESTION ANSWER
Answer: A) The 228 square miles of land in Lake County, Ohio, make it the state's smallest county by land area. This region is part of the Lake Plain physiographic region, featuring unique ridges formed by ancient glacial lakes, offering a distinctive topographical character. Notable is the Mentor Marsh, an Ohio State Nature Preserve, showcasing the area's natural beauty and ecological diversity.
