Water conservation has been a hot topic in Tucson for many years. Drought conditions in Arizona and neighboring states make how we use water as important as how much we use. Implementing more efficient ways to utilize water in our households goes a long way to making this precious commodity last. The City already rewards its residents with rebates when they purchase an energy-efficient washer, replace their toilets, harvest rainwater or install a gray water irrigation system. The organizers of the Tucson Sustainable Landscapes Expo 2019 turn homeowners' focus to the yard.

Tucson Sustainable Landscapes Expo 2019
Did you know that maintaining your landscape and swimming pool can make up as much as 80% of the entire water usage in your Tucson home? The Tucson Sustainable Landscape Expo 2019 hopes to show you how to create a beautiful yard and enjoy your space without using a ton of water. The expo encourages hands-on learning for both adults and kids with their interactive exhibits and live demonstrations. Learn about drip irrigation, protecting your plants from the harsh desert sunlight, which native plants you should include in your landscape design, how to harvest rainwater, and so much more.
In addition to informational exhibits, guests at the Tucson Sustainable Landscapes Expo 2019 will be entertained by live musical guests like the Matt & Rebekah Rolland Trio. Feast on a variety of tasty dishes from food trucks provided by Molecular Munchies, The Loaded Dawg, Buddha Belly Pizza Kitchen, and Johnny's Philippine Grill.
And don't forget to pick up your raffle tickets. Winners will be announced at the end of the expo. You need not be present to win. Some of the amazing gifts up for grabs include gift certificates for landscape design services, smart irrigation controllers, and a 200-gallon rain tank. You can either nab your raffle tickets at the Expo or register online right now.
Bring the kids with you to the Tucson Sustainable Landscape Expo 2019. Teach them to appreciate our world's natural resources today. Then, they'll take the lessons learned and create a brighter tomorrow.
