Summer watering can be more than 50% of your water consumption.  Many people use more water outdoors than indoors over the course of a year. Efficient irrigation practices and waterwise landscape planning and planting can make a hugh difference. Switching to drought resistant plantings and xeriscaping can save water. For additional help visit our Resource page for indoor and outdoor watering information.  Water is our most precious natural resource.  As our population grows, using water wisely preserves this vital resource for future generations.
