Lunch-N-Learn Series Continues with “Efficient Water Use” Program April 8

The Bluebonnet Master Gardener Lunch-N-Learn educational program is a series of nine informational meetings designed to provide gardening or general landscaping information for homeowners. Fayette County Master Gardeners plan and present a variety of programs from experts in the area and across the state. This series is designed with the homeowner in mind; bring your lunch and learn about a variety of topics that help you have a more productive garden, prettier flower beds, or how to better understand your landscape ecosystems.

The topic this month, “Efficient Water Use” is scheduled for Tuesday, April 8 and the guest speaker is Charles Swanson, Extension Program Specialist II. Outdoor water use can account for more than 30 percent of total home water use. Texans must use their precious water resources more efficiently, especially during droughts and hot Texas summers. Much of the water used outdoors is wasted through inefficient landscape watering practices. By reducing the amount of water we waste, we can save water, save money, and protect the quality of life of current and future Texans.

Registration begins at 11:50 a.m. - 12:05 p.m. and the program lasts till 12:50 p.m. The Lunch-N-Learn Series are held at the Fayette County Agricultural Building, 255 Svoboda Lane in La Grange. All Master Gardener Lunch-N-Learn programs are free to the public and you are encouraged to bring your own lunch and drink. Light refreshments are available by Master Gardener hospitality hosts.
