Louisville is now offering free mulch to Jefferson County residents every Monday through the end of summer.
Louisville Parks and Recreation's Urban Forestry Division has started giving out natural, dye-free mulch to residents and nonprofits in need of free mulch. The mulch can be picked up from the Urban Forestry Division's office, located at 9200 Whipps Mill Road in Lyndon, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. every Monday, except on national holidays. If you plan on getting free mulch, you will need to make an appointment by clicking here. You'll also need to bring a Jefferson County ID and your own containers such as trailers, truck beds, buckets or garbage bags, to transport up to three cubic yards of mulch.
You might know that millions of birds migrate over Louisville every spring and fall. But did you also know that billions of migrating birds are hurt or killed each year in the U.S.—and it’s due to artificial light at night pulling them off course or causing them to fly into windows and buildings?
With your help, Lights Out Louisville—a Louisville Audubon Society conservation initiative—aims to change that.
The solution is simple, and anyone can be a part of it:
—This April and May, between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., turn off non-essential lights—both indoors and outside—and close your blinds, shades, and curtains.
—By reducing artificial nighttime light during the two biggest migration months in our area, we give migrating birds a better chance of surviving their long journeys.
—With a few simple actions, you’ll help save birds—and save money on your electricity bill at the same time!
Visit www.lightsoutlouisville.org to learn how going Lights Out is good for birds as well as people, and how you can be a part of the solution.
The Louisville Audubon Society thanks you for making the choice to go Lights Out!
