HPGC 7/19 Program: Sustainable Backyard Water Management
by Highland Park Garden Club Pgh 09 Jul '25

09 Jul '25

*NEXT PROGRAM:* *Saturday, July 19, 2025 • 10:00 - 11 AM* *Sustainable Backyard Water Management - field trip in the Highland Park neighborhood* *Guide: Karen Toole* *Registration due by by Wednesday, 7/16* Water is an increasingly precious, scarce and costly gardening resource. Come learn about the various attempts that fellow Highland Park gardener Karen Toole has made to direct, capture, control and use water on her property to benefit wildlife and fulfill her desire to keep rain water out of our combined sewage system. Learn tips to dramatically reduce your water consumption and lower your water bill, while still nurturing a beautiful and productive garden. Karen holds several art degrees, has designed two municipal parks, earned a Nation Green Infrastructure certificate, was a Penn State Master Gardener, and last year won a Phipps award for a sustainable garden that manages rain water. Karen owns And Flowers, a floral design business, and shares with clients the flowers that she grows on her property while gently teaching them about her sustainability concerns. She has lived and gardened on Bunkerhill Street since 2014, and her home and garden were on this year's Highland Park House Tour. HPGC programs are free to members. Nonmembers are welcome by registering through Eventbrite - a $10 donation is suggested.

Chimney “tree” removal
by Liz Miller Buchanan 08 Jul '25

08 Jul '25

We have some vegetation growing out of a chimney. Does anyone have any suggestions for someone we can hire to remove it? It’s a small job that I can’t imagine would take long, but too precarious for us to access by ourselves. Thanks, Liz Buchanan

Free reptile cavern-making kit
by Stephanie Walsh 08 Jul '25

08 Jul '25

We have a kit for making a custom cavern for a small reptile. I bought it for my son's blue-tongued skink, but he's too large for the tunnel the kit can make. The picture shows the kit; I have everything except the box. If you or someone you know would like it, it's on my front porch, first come, first served. [image: image.png] Stephanie 1315 N. Sheridan

Need AC?! $150 Off Portable Unit! Like NEW!
by Kurt 07 Jul '25

07 Jul '25

Hello! I'm a local contractor. We have been working in your neighborhood installing quite a few AC systems (both whole home & mini split systems) for several residents. We are finishing up with one now, and the homeowner asked me for help selling his old portable unit that he doesn't need anymore. When I say old, I mean it is 2 months old. It is in like new condition! Attached are images. Comes with remote, has WiFi capability, the works. It is the 8000 BTU unit. Bought it for $400, wants $250 for it. Let me know if you want it! I'm sure it'll sell very quickly. We can deliver to your house since we are working in the neighborhood currently. Specs: Dreo Portable Air Conditioner 8000 BTU ASHRAE (5000 BTU DOE), Drainage-free Cooling, 45dB Quiet Smart Standing AC for Room, APP/Voice/Remote, 24H Timer with Fan/Dehumidifier, Covers up to 150 Sq. Ft Lastly, this summer has been hot. Many residents in town are fed up with their window unit configurations not being able to keep up, or perhaps worse, really hiking up their electric bill for generally inadequate cooling. If you are interested in mini split systems, adding or replacing your whole house AC, we are here to help. Don't hesitate to reach out. We have been providing estimates for these services several times per week with this heat. Thank you and have a great day. Warm regards, Kurt Cofano Project Manager 412-758-4610 (cell) Revenant Consulting, LLC. Providing Bespoke General Contracting and Construction Project Management to Pittsburgh since 2018
