Small steps can go a long way in making a difference in your water consumption. When gardening this spring and summer, consider using native species plants. Navite species are already adapted to the local environment and will require little more than natural rainfall.
In the coming months, we will be adding information on native species and other conversation practices that Blue Islanders can easily adopt to reduce their consumption of water resources while gardening.
Also, be sure to check out Blue Islander Anna Stange’s regular column Turning Over a New Leaf – Going Green in Blue Island in the Forum. the Green Guide – Drought Resistant Gardening Guide.
