Green
Policy
Our environmental Impact - Looking after the environment is
important to Landscape Imagineers, so we recycle most of our waste
including plant pots, concrete and hard-core. The hard-core is used
for sub bases for hard landscape features on site. Soil and compost
also is taken where practical, back to our yard and cleaned for
reuse. Large timber is also recycled at our yard and sold as seasoned
logs or used for heating our offices. The rest is chipped and composted
and sold as mulch or added to our top soil.
Chemicals
- We use the minimum amount of chemicals on site and at present
our nursery has managed to remain organic using natural methods
of pest control.
Heating - Our offices are heated solely by log burning
stoves using wood chip and logs
Electricity
- We are currently looking at solar and wind power to supply our
office and yard
Carbon Neutral - To make up for burning and vehicle
use etc, we are working to become Carbon Neutral and eventually
Carbon Negative. We have over 2 acres and plant over 20 trees a
year.
