Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Longboat Key Club & Resort, an all organic golf course that uses natural fertilizers. Profiles John Reilly, the club's director of agronomy, and the products he uses on "both the course and the resort grounds." Describes his water features and how they "are treated with biodegradable products, and runoff from the irrigation system is filtered through natural compounds." Adds that "in addition to the 'green' initiatives for golf course maintenance, the courses also use biodegradable tees, energy-efficient golf cars, biodegradable serviceware and recycled water at all rewash stations." |
