      - Come join this event, no RSVP required


   -  *Greywater Design and Installation workshop*. We'll take you through
   the design process for a "laundry to landscape" (L2L) greywater system,
   which is the most popular, simple, and easiest-to-install residential
   system, and it doesn't require a permit (so long as basic guidelines are
   followed). Whether you install the system yourself, or you hire someone to
   assist you, this workshop will prepare you for the experience. You'll put
   together a "mock-up" of a real system, as well as get individual advice
   from experienced instructors about your site. You'll leave with a system
   design and materials list to construct your own L2L system. *Note:* You
   must have a flat or downwards sloping yard to irrigate with this type of
   system.
