The San Diego County Water Authority is offering workshops on "WaterSmart Landscape Makeover Series", at locations throughout the region. This free series is designed to provide homeowners a comprehensive overview and the basic hands-on skills necessary to makeover a traditional turf yard into a beautiful and climate-appropriate WaterSmart landscape. It consists of four workshops, including a professional design coaching session, all of which are necessary for a successful landscape retrofit. After completing the series all participants will have a landscape design that is ready for implementation.
The WaterSmart Landscape Makeover Series has graduated close to 900 homeowners, and since January 2014, over 1700 Participants have been a part of the classroom programs offered through the WaterSmart Landscape Makeover Program.
In 2014,
the project received the recognition from the American Society of Landscape
Architects (ASLA), San Diego Chapter.
