In the Ecological Landscaping Association presentation to be held on line on Wednesday, March 12 from 7:30 – 8:30 pm, Tim Downey, owner of Aesthetic Landscape Care Inc, will discuss with attendees a practice he’s pioneered called mulch mowing for all seasons. With particular emphasis on the autumn leaf challenge, aka “leaf cleanup.” This is an old approach, with newer technology which not only makes this practice good for the environment, but ridiculously profitable for businesses, and affords cost controls, saving clients money and more.
The presentation will quickly look into the evolution on how this practice came about, its benefits to the environment, benefits to communities/municipalities, and finally a detailed explanation on how to get started with your own business, making you a leader in your area while realizing greater profits and fewer aches and pains.
There be plenty in the presentation for Q & A, and Tim will be available after the Go To Meeting time limit ends for e-mails and phone calls to answer individual question and provide clarification where needed.
