Spring is Here: Water-Friendly Landscaping
With Spring right around the corner, our thoughts turn to sprucing up our lawns and gardens. Many conventional landscape practices impact our water quality and use excess water. Join us in the taproom on Wednesday, April 26th at 6:30 PM to learn about water-friendly landscape practices. Jack Ahern will discuss various practices including lawn reduction, lawn alternatives, responsible turf management, as well as the use of native shrubs and trees. He will also discuss green infrastructure practices to manage runoff, filter stormwater and promote infiltration, along with presenting designed landscapes that employ water-friendly practices.
