Free brochure on how to recycle grass clippings

Oyster Bay Town Councilman Angelo A. Delligatti invites residents to "Join the Mulcher Culture" and is offering an informative brochure by the same name, which describes how residents can recycle their lawns by not bagging grass.

"Every garbage bag full of grass clippings wastes up to a quarter pound of useable organic nitrogen," Councilman Delligatti said. "Grass recycling saves you time, reduces waste and leads to a deeper, healthier root system that increases your lawn's resistance to disease, drought and insects. It will also reduce your fertilization costs and help protect the water supply from pollutants."

According to the Councilman, this brochure offers residents tips on how to recycle their lawn, as well as tips to ensure a healthy lawn.

Councilman Delligatti noted that any resident or organization interested in obtaining a free brochure can pick up one at the Town Halls North (Oyster Bay) and South (Massapequa), the Department of Public Works (Syosset) and at major park facilities, write to the Town of Oyster Bay Public Information Office, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, N.Y. 11771 or call 624-6380.
