VALUED CUSTOMERS & FRIENDS+
So far what happened in Vegas has stayed in Vegas! LA residents have proactively worked to secure our water future, stripping 5 million square feet of turf grass without Vegas-style mandates. What comes next? LA's first urban fruit trail, IdealMow playspaces, vibrant butterfly gardens... When LA strips, it's a beautiful story worth telling. Let's get loud!
Sincerely,
Cassy and Kirk Aoyagi

Fall presents new opportunities to beautify, build and enjoy sustainable gardens. In September, we will:
Feed You and Your Garden:
- Harvest fresh herbs and veggies from home gardens for fantastic fall meals
- Identify garden areas to fill-in with fall planting
- Evaluate the fall and winter pruning needs of trees
- Prune California natives that have completed their cycle of growth for the year, allowing them to rejuvenate
Protecting Garden Beauty from Drought:
- Set irrigation systems to water less often and more deeply to help existing landscapes establish tolerance to drought conditions
- Eliminate run-off, overspray and leaks
- Watch for expected new rebates and other sustainable landscaping incentives offered by water districts and municipalities throughout L.A. County
