Learn about drip irrigation at Water Wise gardening class March 21

Drip Irrigation for Your Garden

ROCKWALL, TX (Feb. 26, 2015) Learn about drip irrigation and its many benefits by participating in an important Water Wise  class from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 21 at the Rockwall County Extension Office, E. 915 Whitmore St., Suite B.

As we face severe water restrictions in the months ahead, this class will teach how to save water and money.  Learn why drip irrigation is the most efficient method to use and what equipment is readily available and easy to install.  The irrigation benefits taught in this class will apply to any home gardener, whether you are watering flower beds or vegetable plots.  An optional feature of the class will be a field trip to a local home garden to view the setup of a rain water / drip irrigation system.
