 We are so excited about our upcoming Sweet Water Wise Walking Tour "Plus",  this time in the Mission Canyon area, on Saturday May 20, 2017, from 2:30-6:00 PM. Water-wise features include rain gardens, a Slimline raintank, dry creek beds, a native meadow, swales on contour, sheet mulching, and soil building.   We'll also see four distinct ways to treat stormwater as a resource instead of a nuisance, enhancing the beauty of our landscapes and benefiting the community.Like other Sweet Water Wise tours in the past, we will share exquisite landscapes with innovative water wise features. This particular tour has a special blend of unique features, highlighting amazing answers to lawn replacement and dealing with stormwater run-on.
