It’s the early summer at the Flower Bin and Don Weakland shows us all the colorful Perennials, Annuals, Roses and Hanging Baskets. We learn about the difference between Perennials and Annuals and how to keep them growing, as we look at some of the many wonderful flowers they have in the nursery. We also get a peek at some of the 100s of different varieties of Roses they personally grow. Then we go into the greenhouses and look at the wide selection of annuals and hanging baskets as well as garden vegetables you can get here.

Boulder County’s moratorium on oil and gas drilling permits is scheduled to expire on June 10
May 4th
TAKE ACTION: Contact the County Commissioners @ commissioners@bouldercounty.org to ask for a multi-year moratorium on fracking until we have results of neutral health impact research such as the National Science Foundation study due in 2018. Before issuing any oil and gas drilling permits, we need to first know the public safety impacts of hydraulic fracturing.
A multi-year moratorium based on the need for health impact studies on fracking would allow time for the results of medical and scientific studies now in the works to be finalized, including a 5-year $12 million study funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) being coordinated by the University of Colorado at Boulder, an EPA study on “Potential Impacts of Hydraulic Fracturing on Drinking Water Resources,” and a multi-year study by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment with Colorado State University.
