Yard & Garden Lecture Series 2026
Designing for Drought: Waterwise Designs with Native Plants
Lisa Taylor
No matter where you live in Washington, water conservation is an issue. Educator, consultant, and author Lisa Taylor will share how landscaping with native plants, rain gardens and cisterns help conserve and filter water and provide habitat for pollinators. She will show how small changes — for example, creating contours and rain gardens, and adding cisterns and rain barrels — can lead to big improvements in water quality and retention.
Get inspired with landscaping and gardening insights, connecting with our forests, water conservation, birding, and pest management.
