As a resident of Cidermill Village, I would like to encourage the managers of Cidermill Village to eliminate the use of lawn care pesticides on or near the Ciderill Village grounds to create and maintain a safe and sustainable environment for our children. Instead of using pesticides, we would like the Cidermill to convert to a natural lawn care system.
I have 2-year-old son who often plays in the grass around the apartment and the children's play structure. I am mortified to realize he is increasing his risk of cancer by interacting with the natural environment in his own backyard.
I would like Cidermill Village to make the choice to protect the health of our community and our environment by switching entirely to use of organic, natural fertilizers and no pesticides to manage landscaped areas and grounds to protect children and pets from the harmful health impacts of lawn and landscape chemicals.
I would be happy to collaborate with you to make these changes.
Sincerely,
Edana Kistampally
