California-Friendly Landscape Classes
March Series
Posted Date: 1/22/2010

Poway, CA - As part of its water conservation program, the City of Poway is offering free California-friendly landscape classes to residents. Because of Poway’s current Level 2 Water Shortage Alert and with summer quickly approaching, the City recommends homeowners attend to learn more about water-efficient landscaping techniques for our semi-arid environment.

Participants may sign up for the classes individually or as a four-part series. The residential series begins Saturday, March 6, and lasts four weeks. The topics for the residential landscaping classes include:
