We were recently contacted by DrugWatch, an organization dedicated to keeping families safe and sharing important health information, about Paraquat. Paraquat is a popular, higly toxic herbicide that can cause many short-term and long-term health effects. Notably, research has linked long-term exposure to paraquat to Parkinson's
Disease.
To help educate about this toxic chemical, DrugWatch has created a comprehensive guide about paraquat. It covers things like what it is used for, symptons, side effects, treatment, and more!
To become educated and aware click on DrugWatch.
Here's a great resource as shared by one of our members. Check out the Hardy Plant Society for gardens to tour, nurseries to shop, and much more.
