Learn how to maintain your water-conserving garden and spend less time doing it! Topics will include the proper planting and care of California native and other low-water plants. Information about pruning techniques and drip irrigation systems will also be discussed. Hear why healthy soil is so important and learn how sheet mulching can reduce the time you spend weeding.

She graduated from this program with an A.S. degree in 2006. She is an active member of our Chapter, formerly field trip chair and treasurer.
