Whether you're new to greywater or have been dreaming of a system for years, this event will help you understand design basics as well as installation techniques, so you can confidently install your own Laundry-to-Landscape (L2L) system at home. The L2L system is an inexpensive DIY project that can save you thousands of gallons of water with one afternoon's work.
The host homes are spread along a 1.5 mile walking area. Walking and biking are encouraged, but driving is okay too. Carpools can be arranged so that pedestrians only need to travel one way. Stops along the way will have a tasty treat from the garden, with a delicious light lunch provided at the last stop! Potluck contributions welcome.
