as an environmentally friendly yard.

Mike Flynn
Green Quest promotes the preservation
of environmental health both above and below
the ground. This approach comes from the
belief that all nature is interdependent
and in order to enjoy a healthy, sustainable
world we must take responsibility for the
health of the entire ecosystem. Green Quest
views ecosystem health as an outcome from
the use of biologically-based, sustainable
practices for lawn and garden care and agriculture.
