"During the spring and summer we frequently hold events for homeowners on how to maintain lawns without relying upon toxic pesticides, but this event is intended for people who work in the trade," explained Neal Lewis, Neighborhood Network executive director. "We hold this event in the off season because our goal is share the information and resources with people who manage school athletic fields, public parks, and landscapers."
