'Rethink Your Lawn' the Bay-Friendly Way

Learn how to remove your lawn without tearing it out!

This FREE how-to talk and tabling event presented by Landscape Designer Rebecca Schoenenberger and Master Composter Brian Debasitis, will provide design and plant selection advice as well as walk you through converting your lawn without breaking your back or your wallet. There will be a hands-on demonstration of sheet mulching - an easy technique of layering materials on top of your lawn, allowing you to plant right into it. Plus, learn how you can participate in your local water agency's water conservation rebate program, which could put some green in your pocket!

Everyone who attends the talk will receive a free copy of the Bay-Friendly Gardening Guide. There will be a drawing for additional garden gifts at the end of the talk.

The hour and a half talk is followed by tabling, where you can chat one-on-one with the designers. No registration is required.
