Whole of Site Water Saving with Jerry Coleby Williams

Renowned horticulturist Jerry Coleby Williams is coming to the New England region this November, sharing practical water-saving ideas for urban and peri-urban gardens.

Learn how to make every drop count through a Whole of Site Water Management Plan — a system that captures, recycles, and reuses water across the home and garden.

Topics include:

• Rainwater Harvesting – Collecting and storing roof water for garden use

• Recycling Wastewater – Treating and reusing all household water on site

• Land Drainage & Stormwater Infiltration – Returning water to the soil

• Sustainable Lawns & Garden Design – Building compost-rich, water-absorbing soils

• Permeable Surfaces – Reducing runoff from paths, driveways, and garden areas
