UCCE Smart Landscape Practices

Ideas about smart and sustainable landscape practices have really become part of the mainstream in many ways. It is common to see people composting green waste and mulching their gardens. There are more efficient irrigation systems that respond to weather demands and most people have installed automatic irrigation controllers. Even though we are doing these things, there is so much more we can be doing. We can be keeping more of our green waste on site. We could be using less fertilizer and even less pesticides. We could be collecting rainwater and creating raingardens.
