WATER CONSERVATION
DEMONSTRATION GARDEN
|
The Lakehaven Utility District Water Conservation Garden was
constructed with the generous support of local businesses to serve as a demonstration
garden to promote outdoor water conservation.
In conservation landscaping, the primary goal is reducing
the amount of water applied to the landscape. It may take up to three years to wean a new
or transformed landscape to a minimum of applied water, but with careful planning, it is
possible to reduce or completely eliminate the need for added water above natural
precipitation. Doing so will save you time, money and help protect the environment.

The garden is located at 31531 1st Avenue South
in Federal Way, WA. Brochures on conservation gardening, soil preparation and plant lists
are available at the garden site. If you would like further information call (253)
946-5426.
LET THE OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT YOU CREATE
AROUND YOUR HOME ECHO THE NATURAL WORLD OF YOUR REGION.

2006 WATER CONSERVATION CALENDAR
The District, in
partnership with the Federal Way Elementary Schools and the local business
community, sponsored our annual poster drawing contest to develop a
2006 Water Conservation Calendar. The winning posters are featured art on
the calendar and calendars are available through the participating schools
as a fund raising project each fall.
