Do you want to switch over to a drought tolerant garden but were wondering just how to do it? There are some easy things to learn about converting a traditional garden into a “water sipping” landscape. We will cover basic design, simple soil testing, and irrigation strategies for turning your yard - or just parts of it - into a more California friendly environment. This will be a step by step process for understanding the basic needs of a less thirsty garden and what that means in terms of maintenance, choice of plant material and even how to welcome birds, butterflies and insects into your yard.
