Water Wise

For a lot of us, water is fun.  I personally love to swim at the lake with my Duck friend, Friendly.  But, water is a serious issue in some areas, and we need to learn to use it wisely.  Do you live in a dry area, or do you get a lot of rain?  Green spaces are important, but let’s not overuse water.  How?

Plant the right grass and plants for your area.  Did you know that there are different types of grasses and plants that require little water and some plants almost no water at all?   If you are in an area that suffers through dry summers, use drought-resistant plants and grass. 

 We should all be talking about better use of water.  Help me spread the word – and save the planet!
