With the weather we’ve had this summer, it feels like the seasons may never change. But September is here and the first day of fall is near.

In anticipation of cooler times, SCV Water has you covered with a free online gardening class that will help you care for your turf.

Do you want your lawn to look its best? Join us Saturday, Sept. 19 from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. to learn about Water Saving Turf Care and Turf Substitutes.

You’ll learn techniques to maintain your turf that will keep it thriving and may improve water efficiency. Or, if you’re looking for some ideas for turf substitutes, we’ve got that covered too, with plants that work well instead of turf in your landscape.

All classes are held online.

To register, and to see a complete list of classes for 2020, visit yourSCVwater.com/gardening-classes or call 661-513-1230 and sign up.
