June 7-13 is #NationalGardeningWeek. Before you pick out those new flowers and trees be sure to call 811 to request the location of buried utilities be marked with paint or flags. Hitting a buried line while digging can disrupt utility service or cause injury or death.

Before placing fire pits, furniture, tents, or lights, take a look up—and around. Keep all outdoor setups a safe distance from power lines to prevent hazards or outages. If you notice a line hanging low, call your local co-op so they can take a look and keep your summer safe.

Summer break calls for fun and smart habits.
☀️ Set daily “power down” times for screens.
☀️ Get kids outside during daylight hours.
☀️ Close blinds in afternoon heat.
☀️ Use ceiling fans over AC.
☀️ Create a charging station to cut phantom energy.
Small changes = big savings!
