Is your sidewalk thirsty? 🤨 Probably not. Check your sprinkler heads to make sure you’re watering the grass, not the concrete. It’s the easiest way to stop wasting 10 gallons every time the timer goes off!💧

☀️💧 Hot Days, Smart Watering

With 100° F temperatures, it's tempting to water more. However, some of the biggest increases in water use occur during the hottest days of the year, and much of that water can be lost to evaporation or overwatering.

Simple ways to conserve water this summer:
✅ Water lawns and landscapes early in the morning
✅ Water only when plants need it
✅ Sweep driveways and sidewalks instead of using a hose

Did you know: When temperatures climb into the upper 90s and 100s, it's natural for lawns to experience some stress. In fact, many warm-season grasses can go dormant during hot, dry periods and green up again when cooler temperatures and rainfall return.

It's okay if your lawn isn't perfectly green during the hottest days of summer. Water wisely, avoid overwatering, and help conserve our valuable water resources.
