SUMMARY:Queen Creek's The ABCs of Landscape Watering
DESCRIPTION:Let’s face it—that little plastic box on the side of your house that controls the watering of your yard can be intimidating! However\, it is important to know how to work your irrigation controller because outdoor watering is often the largest water use for a household. This class will teach you how to properly water the plants and grass in your yard. You will also get hands-on experience by learning how to program an actual controller in class. Take what you learn and apply it to your yard for a healthier-looking and more water efficient landscape. \n\nThe Town of Queen Creek offers free workshops and classes to help you reduce your water use. All workshops/classes are free of charge to Town of Queen Creek utility customers\, but advanced registration is required as space is limited. Register online at QueenCreek.org/WaterSmart.
