The 2020 Watersaver Landscape Tour is scheduled for Saturday, October 24 at 10 a.m.  And you can join from the comfort of your own home! Some of the homes chosen to participate belong to Sonterra neighborhoods.  We are excited to help promote this informational tour.  You will see ARC approved signs throughout Stone Oak with tour information. This year’s tour will be held online given the pandemic has not completely subsided. But, that hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm of sponsors Gardening Volunteers of South Texas (GVST), San Antonio Water System (SAWS) and Trinity Glen Rose Groundwater Conservation District (TGR) to bring you an inside look at some water-saving landscapes in San Antonio.

 For each featured home, you will see a short video that contains an interview with the homeowner and several colorful photos from the landscape. Horticultural experts Calvin Finch, Jerry Parsons and Mark Peterson will be on hand to describe the photos and explain how you can create your own personal oasis using water-saving native plants. Viewers will also be able to download a plant list from each yard that will be greatly helpful as each video plays.

In addition to the insightful landscape information, there will be some great prizes given away to some lucky webinar attendees. You can sign up today! Just click HERE to register.

If you want a nice warmup for the Watersaver Landscape Tour, you can sign up for the Gardening Volunteers Landscape Design School scheduled for Oct 19. This will also be held virtually.  You can sign up for the design school by clicking HERE.  (This session is presented FREE on Zoom from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. If you have not done so, you will need to download Zoom to your computer, it also is free. After you register you will receive the login information.) 

We look forward to our Sonterra neighbors sharing their success with their gardens- and their water bills!
