Frank Saltarelli Launches “Outdoor Living First” Personal Pledge to Encourage More Functional and Sustainable Urban Spaces

Frank Saltarelli, founder of Saltarelli Outdoor Design, announced the Outdoor Living First Personal Pledge, a new initiative encouraging homeowners and residents to better utilize outdoor spaces through sustainable landscaping practices.
Statistics Canada reports over 80% of Canadians live in urban areas, where rising temperatures and limited green space drive the need for better-integrated, sustainable outdoor environments.
The pledge features seven commitments, including spending at least 20 minutes outdoors daily and using native plants to reduce maintenance needs while maximizing space utility.
"The best compliment isn't when someone says a project looks beautiful," Saltarelli said, emphasizing that successful designs prioritize daily usability over trends requiring constant maintenance.
Residents are invited to take the pledge, share the toolkit, and commit to one small outdoor improvement over the next 30 days to strengthen connections with nature.
