Have you taken steps to drought-proof your home this year? Participants in our Lawn-to-Garden workshop hosted on June 3 have taken their first steps in an important process- shifting lawns to water-wise landscapes! Photos from our workshop on Jun 3, 2023 are available in the Google Drive folder linked here: Lawn-to-Garden 2023 Workshop Photos

At the lawn-to-garden workshop, presented in partnership with Contra Contra Water District and the City of Pittsburg, participants learned sheetmulching conversion techniques to create a beautiful garden suitable for water-wise perennial landscaping at a private residence. Our group walked away with valuable knowledge that can be used in personal homes to convert lawns to water-wise gardens that support native fauna and conserve our resources! Not only is this process smart for our earth, it’s also smart for your wallet! CCWD and other water utilities offer a rebate to residents who convert their lawns to water-wise landscapes. Learn more about this wonderful process today to earn points with our earth and save money in more ways than one! 

Thank you so much to our wonderful sponsors, partners, and educators who supported this workshop and the water-wise series of workshops throughout this month! Be on the lookout for more wonderful workshops hosted by SCOCO this year and we can't wait to see you there!
