Low-Maintenance, Low-Water Landscaping with Native Plants

You can save time, water bills, and garden chores by reducing the size of your lawn and planting native plants. This will also keep your yard looking good in the face of hotter and drier weather and increasing water restrictions – without having to resort to installing just gravel. Join us in this 3-hour workshop to learn about removing some or all your thirsty turf areas and planting low-water native plants & grasses instead. We will share the pros and cons of each method of converting lawn to garden, why rocks are not the answer, and share native plants that are low maintenance, look good, and even attract pollinators!
