Ways to Save Water

Gray Water

Gray water is water from your bathroom sinks, showers, tubs, and laundry that may be used to irrigate your outdoor landscapes.

Harvest Rain

Monsoon rains should be a great benefit to landscape plants. But if the rainwater simply runs off of your property, you're not getting the full benefit of all that moisture!

Irrigation

There are a number of water-efficient irrigation systems for your garden and landscapes.

Low-Water Landscaping

Low-Water Landscapes can be used anywhere - from small residential yards to large commercial sites.
