Outdoor Water Conservation

  • Water your lawn or garden in short repeated intervals for best absorption
  • Prevent runoff form your sprinkler system
  • To reduce evaporation, avoid watering your lawn in the heat of the day
  • Install trickle or drip irrigation for slow steady watering of plants and shrubs
  • Add 2” to 4” of mulch around plants and trees to avoid excess evaporation
  • Choose native or adapted plants for your landscaping. These plants usually require less care and water
  • If your lawn is healthy, consider letting it go dormant in the summer. It will turn green again when it rains.
  • Clean your driveway with a broom rather than using the hose
  • Don’t let your hose run unnecessarily, use a hose with a shutoff nozzle for washing your car
