Experience with Eco-Gardening

Thomas Witz, manager of maintenance operations, received a certificate of Organic Farming from UC Farm and Garden

CEC has sent a representative to the Conference of Ecological Farming two out of the last four years.

Even in the majority of our accounts where we do use pesticides and chemical fertilizers; our approach is always cultural practice before chemical intervention.
