“Nature, a powerful force that can be far more destructive or productive
depending on contributing factors injected by Man.” L. J. Williams, 2007
A true productive use of Nature is when we plant trees around a house to help save energy!
Whether by using plant life, such as trees, for beauty, shade and/or as windbreaks, that is the best way to get nature to help balance out nature. Evergreens planted on the north side of our houses will help in the winter months and planting medium sized trees in front of large size trees on the southwest side will help in the summer.
If old man winter hits us hard from the North, then defend the house with a "Wall of Nature" on that Northern Front. There are many choices and decisions to be made when planting. First determine the purpose or benefits you wish to gain from planting.

 Do we want to save energy with shade? |  Do we want to save energy with windbreaks? |  Do we know the rules for planting so we avoid danger with power lines? |
We will cover these topics above, one at a time, as our website grows. No pun intended. They will be posted in the Blog section under these dates: January, 2003 / February, 2003 / January, 2004 - Thank you.
