Breast Cancer Awareness and Kennedy Landscaping: Joining Hands for the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" Program
Breast Cancer is a battle that is fought every day by thousands of women, and their loved ones, across the world. Every year, October marks the Breast Cancer Awareness Month where businesses, organizations, and individuals take the initiative to support, educate and raise awareness about the disease. At Kennedy Landscaping, we strongly believe that every little step counts, and together, we can make a big difference in the fight against Breast Cancer.
This October, Kennedy Landscaping is proud to support the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program, an initiative that seeks to raise awareness and funds to fight Breast Cancer. We want to take this opportunity to share our journey and how we plan to help make strides this year.
As a landscaping company, we know that the outdoors play a significant role in the fight against Breast Cancer. According to studies, being physically active and staying fit helps reduce the risk of Breast Cancer. Moreover, being close to nature is scientifically proven to have several health benefits. With that in mind, we have organized a Breast Cancer Awareness Walk this October 17th, where we will invite our clients, family, and friends to join us for a morning of physical activity, fresh air, and fun.
In addition to our Breast Cancer Awareness Walk, we will donate 5% of our proceeds in October towards the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program. Our aim is to show our support for the warriors, survivors, and those still fighting the disease.
At Kennedy Landscaping, we take Breast Cancer Awareness Month very seriously, and we believe that our support can help save lives and make a difference in our community. Our message to everyone is, "Stay strong, Stay informed, Stay supported, and never lose hope. We stand with you, and together we can beat Breast Cancer."
We would like to invite everyone to join us this October as we take the initiative to support the "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" program. By doing so, we are making a difference, and we encourage other businesses and individuals to do the same.
We appreciate your support and would like to remind everyone that early detection is the key to saving lives. Please make sure you schedule your mammogram appointments this year.
We look forward to seeing you at the Kennedy Landscaping Breast Cancer Awareness Walk this October.
Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, and Together, Let's make strides!
The holiday season is the perfect time to gather with family and friends, and if you’re hosting this year, your outdoor living space is just as important as the inside of your home. A well-maintained yard can make a lasting impression and create a welcoming environment for your guests. Here are some tips to prepare your yard for the holidays, and how Kennedy Landscaping can help you create a beautiful and inviting space. 1. Spruce Up Your Lawn and Garden Beds: A clean, green lawn is the foundation of any beautiful landscape. Make sure your grass is freshly mowed and edged, and remove any fallen leaves or debris. Now is also a great time to refresh your garden beds with seasonal flowers like pansies and snapdragons, or add a layer of mulch to keep everything looking tidy and well-kept. 2. Add Festive Touches: Incorporate some festive décor into your outdoor space to create a cheerful atmosphere. String lights along walkways or around trees, and place potted holiday plants like poinsettias or evergreens near your entrance. Kennedy Landscaping can help you design and install tasteful seasonal decorations that complement your existing landscape. 3. Enhance Your Hardscape: Don’t forget to give attention to your hardscape elements like patios, walkways, and driveways. Pressure wash these areas to remove dirt and grime, and consider adding outdoor rugs or cushions in seasonal colors to your patio furniture. Our team can help you with hardscape maintenance and even suggest enhancements like pathway lighting or fire pits to make your outdoor space cozy and functional. 4. Create Gathering Areas: If you’re planning to entertain outdoors, consider creating designated gathering areas. Arrange seating around a fire pit, add a few extra chairs, or set up a hot beverage station on your patio. Kennedy Landscaping can assist in designing and setting up these spaces to ensure your guests feel comfortable and welcome. 5. Safety First: With increased foot traffic, make sure all walkways and steps are clear and well-lit to prevent accidents. Check your outdoor lighting and replace any bulbs as needed. If you have uneven pathways or overgrown branches, let us take care of them to ensure a safe environment for your holiday celebrations. From refreshing your garden beds to installing festive lighting, Kennedy Landscaping is here to help you get your yard holiday-ready. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and let us transform your outdoor living space into a beautiful extension of your home. 🎅Wishing you and your family a safe and happy holiday season from all of us at Kennedy Landscaping! 🎄
As the cooler months approach in Ormond Beach (eventually...), it’s essential to give some attention to your hardscape elements, such as walkways, patios, and outdoor features. Proper maintenance not only keeps your outdoor spaces looking their best but also prevents potential damage from the elements. Here are some tips to ensure your hardscape is ready for the winter season. 1. Clean and Inspect All Surfaces: Start by thoroughly cleaning all your hardscape areas, including patios, walkways, and driveways. Use a broom or blower to remove leaves, dirt, and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a pressure washer to eliminate built-up grime, mold, or mildew. Inspect the surfaces for any cracks, chips, or uneven areas. Address these issues promptly to prevent further damage from moisture and temperature changes. 2. Repair Cracks and Joints: Even small cracks in your hardscape can become larger problems if left unattended. Use a suitable sealant or filler to repair any cracks in concrete, stone, or pavers. For paver patios or walkways, check the joints for any loose or missing sand and refill them with polymeric sand to keep the pavers secure and prevent weeds from growing. 3. Seal Patios and Walkways: Applying a sealant to your hardscape surfaces can help protect them from moisture, stains, and the effects of temperature fluctuations. Choose a high-quality sealant that is appropriate for the material of your patio or walkway, whether it’s concrete, brick, or natural stone. Sealing not only enhances the appearance of your hardscape but also extends its lifespan. 4. Prepare Outdoor Features: If you have outdoor furniture, fountains, or fire pits, now is the time to prepare them for winter. Clean and cover outdoor furniture to protect it from moisture and mildew. Drain and clean fountains, and consider using a fountain cover to prevent debris buildup. For fire pits, remove ash and debris and cover them to keep the area clean and ready for use during cooler nights. 5. Address Drainage Issues: Check the drainage around your hardscape areas to ensure water is not pooling on or around walkways and patios. Poor drainage can lead to erosion and structural damage. Consider adding or adjusting drainage solutions, such as French drains or regrading, to direct water away from these areas. Proper hardscape maintenance in November helps prevent damage and keeps your outdoor spaces looking beautiful throughout the winter.
