Image PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT - YOLO Colorhouse Paint - $10.00/GALLON REBATE THRU APRIL 15

YOLO Colorhouse® is a collection of premium interior paints based in nature. Borrowing some of the Earth’s naturally occurring elements and combining them with environmentally responsible paint, YOLO Colorhouse® has created premium interior paints with zero VOC and a durable washable finish to reflect the purity of Earth’s color palette.

YOLO Colorhouse® zero VOC paints and primer are certified by Green Seal™, an independent non-profit setting standards for environmentally responsible products. Green Seal certification is based on VOC content, the absence of chemicals, (see www.greenseal.org) durability, performance and manufacturing practices. Green Seal certification automatically qualifies YOLO Colorhouse® for LEED certified projects.

*VOC: Volatile Organic Compounds are the solvents in conventional latex paints that evaporate easily at room temperature — the stinky stuff. VOCs contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer as well as poor indoor air quality.

FUN FACTS about BACKYARD COMPOSTING

WHAT IS COMPOSTING?
Composting is recycling organic materials such as lawn clippings, vegetable scraps, leaves and other wastes into a rich soil amendment/conditioner.

WHY COMPOST?
* Approximately 13% of the material in landfills is green waste and 12% is food waste, both segments of which are excellent for composting.
* Your kitchen garbage will smell much better without kitchen food scraps.
* As opposed to most fertilizers, compost will release nitrogen over a longer time period.
* Less food scraps go down the disposal where water is wasted and septic tanks are overworked.
* You can create your own inexpensive soil amendment and at the same time reduce waste/disposal costs.
