Water-Saving Planting Using Containers and Raised Gardens
El Paso County Master Gardeners and El Paso Water have teamed up to present a FREE series of Water Conservation workshops. Join us at the TecH2O Water Learning Center for July’s presentation by El Paso County Master Gardener Robin Scofield.
Do you have sandy or caliche soil? Raised beds and containers are your solutions. At this talk, you’ll get great tips on saving water by using raised beds and containers.
After the presentation, stay for a 30-minute special facilities tour and learn about TecH2O Center’s keyhole gardens.
