Question from More Sharing Services

HealthyStuff.org has a new 2012 Garden Products Study which tested 179 common garden products. The product most tested and of most concern was the the ordinary everyday garden hose.

They found levels of lead that exceeded Consumer Product Safety Commission levels (and there is actually no safe level for lead) and more lead, phtalates, and BPA in the hoses themselves.

Read the HealthyStuff.org 2012 Garden Products Study, which includes recommendations for choosing safe hoses and specific brand names.
