sustainability

Sat, Oct 4

Tired of watering, mowing and weeding your lawn but don't know what to put in instead?  Replacing your lawn appropriately reduces your water bill and your maintenance costs, encourages habitat for birds and butterflies and does not contribute to global warming.  You'll come away from this inspiring talk with dozens of ideas, illustrated by pictures worth more than a thousand words.  Deva Luna combines her passion for plants with a desire to enhance the environment.  She is a lifetime Master Gardener, Gardening Instructor, Coordinator of Santa Clara Teaching Garden, Landscape Designer and Horticulturalist for EarthCare Landscaping.  She has a degree in "Plants and Art" from UC Davis.
