Now is the time to rethink your lawn. A typical lawn consumes >10,000 gals of water each year. By replacing even part of your lawn with native, water-wise plants, you can save tons of water & help support our birds, bees and bugs. For great alternatives, don’t miss the Going Native Garden Tour. Go to: www.goingnativegardentour.org for details. The North Bay tour is on Saturday, April 9th and the South Bay tour is on Sunday, April 10th, 2016. Both tours will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
About Growing 2 Shine
Being an avid gardener, born and raised in Indiana, I feel incredible blessed to live in sunny California & be able to grow my own food all year-round! I write a monthly garden column for the San Jose Mercury News & am constantly striving for tips & ideas on how to live a little more gently in regards to ourselves, our planet & each other – basically sustainability we can live with! As a fulltime realtor here in the Bay Area, I help my clients “Go Green” in & around their homes & communities.
I hope you will find my monthly Green Tips useful; & I hope you find inspiration in the monthly Garden Tips & the incredible Edibles You Can Plant & Grow!
