Staycation anyone? This home exemplifies how enhancing a few elements in your landscape can serve as an extension of your overall living space – one you may never want to leave. It all starts with water catchment via downspouts to rain tanks, rain gardens, and a laundry to landscape greywater system. All these water-saving elements bring more water to a multi-colored pallet of native and pollinator friendly flowers, trees, and shrubs. A rain garden keeps moisture in the ground longer, helping temperatures stay cooler during the hot summer months. An irrigated food forest thrives just steps away from the back door and patio.
