Living Green

Good morning,

You would be surprised how much water a typical lawn will
consume. Even an average lawn will use about 400 gallons of
water per hour of sprinkling. There are huge opportunities
for conservation there.

Please scroll down for some more simple ideas on reducing
the amount of fresh water we use on our lawns.

Thanks for reading,

* Over summer, set your lawnmower to cut at least an inch
higher than usual. Longer grass retains moisture better
as it shields the soil from the sun’s rays.

* Use a mulching mower if possible rather than removing
cuttings; this will also help with water retention and
fertilizing.

* Consider investing in rain barrels. You can accumulate
hundreds of gallons of fresh water (depending on how many
barrels you have) which can be directly used on your lawn
and garden without any treatment.
