Water-wise landscape workshop set for yard-care professionals

Local landscaping professionals will learn "best practices" for wise water use in ridge landscaping when the Paradise Irrigation District (PID) holds a Landscape Irrigation Workshop from noon to 4 pm on Feb. 27.

Participants will explore new irrigation technology, discover plants that thrive locally with less water, and will learn about PID meter system tools to help their customers save landscaping water and cost.

The free workshop will include lunch, handouts, presentations by local experts in water-wise landscaping, and a roundtable discussion. Participants will learn how they can partner with PID to conserve water in our community and be recognized for that partnership.

In some homes, more than half of the water usage is for outdoor landscaping. A water-wise landscape is one that allows for a beautiful, healthy landscape with waterwise plants, minimal supplemental irrigation, and little to no adverse runoff. Yard professionals, including handymen, landscapers and gardeners who help customers care for their yards are eligible to attend this free workshop. Preregistration is required. Call PID at 877-4971 to register.
