Details:

Lawns are ubiquitous in California, yet they require more water, chemicals, time and energy than any other type of landscape. There is a movement in the Bay Area to remove lawns and replace them with low-maintenance shrubs, perennials, meadows, and more. Using beautiful water-wise California native plants, you can create a diverse landscape more suited to our Mediterranean climate and more attractive to local wildlife. Learn about rebates available for removing your lawn, what to replace it with, and how to do it. Be part of the movement! Taught by Sherri Osaka who is a licensed Landscape Architect and Bay- Friendly Qualified Designer. She started her company Sustainable Landscape Design in 1997.
