In the Spring of 2016, Water – Use It Wisely, along with our fabulous promotional partners, including Ewing Irrigation & Landscape Supply, the Arizona Nursery Association and its Plant Something campaign, and the Arizona Landscape Contractors Association, gave away a backyard makeover through a promotion with ABC15 TV.

Our winner, Lisa O. from Avondale, Arizona, and her husband, Alan, won a gorgeous Xeriscape landscape makeover valued at $8,000, and with the help of our partners, turned their yard from ‘drab-ulous’ to fabulous!

“I never enter contests,” Lisa confessed. “But I thought, our backyard is so ugly! Maybe we’ll win? We are truly grateful for this amazing gift.”
