* We pull over to help stuck drivers during snow storms. 

* We are the ones who clear the snow off of the extra four feet of the sidewalk to the neighbor's drive instead of leaving it for them to do.

* We volunteered labor to create a community garden in Ames

* We understand that you sometimes forget to pickup the toys from the lawn before we come. We go ahead and do it for you when you forget.

* We volunteered hours and equipment to assist United Community Schools with mulching their trees.

* We choose to use all natural fertilizers, weed control, and soil amendments to protect you while improving your lawn.

* We choose to mow residential lawns using an electric push mower to reduce: emissions, noise pollution, and stay fit.

* We choose to trim lawns with an electric trimmer.

* We choose to move our electric mower, trimmer, and blower from one property to the next via a trailer pulled by a bicycle.

* We choose to edge sidewalks, driveways, and curbs with hand tools like a steel spade or edging tool.

* We choose to use wheelbarrows instead of mini-skid loaders to move material as much as possible.

* We choose to use people power instead of machines to keep the local economy going strong.
