Join us on March 7 to learn the basics of waterwise drip irrigation in Fairfield! During this event, we will expand on an existing, water-efficient drip line irrigation system with the focus of growing annual vegetables. This event will be held at the <a href="https://sustainablesolano.org/project/garden-of-shalom/" title="https://sustainablesolano.org/project/garden-of-shalom/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Garden of Shalom Demo Food Forest</a> backyard garden in Fairfield. Heath Griffith from Grow with the Flow will teach an introduction to this sustainable irritation method, and then lead a hands-on installation. You can expect to learn the differences between dripline and other irrigation methods, the advantages of drip irrigation, and how to assemble the components on a landscape. Whether you've been wanting to dip your toes into this subject, or brush up on existing knowledge, you are welcome!
