Are you tired of mowing your lawn? Looking for a more sustainable option that requires less water? Join us for an evening workshop and learn how to convert your traditional grass into a no-mow lawn or pollinator lawn. The terms “no-mow” and “low-grow” refer to a type of grass called fine fescues. These species are one of the most shade tolerant turfs, require less water, and little to no mowing.

In this practical workshop you’ll learn everything from how to assess your current lawn, to selecting the right seed and planting and maintaining a no-mow or pollinator lawn. Come with your curiosity and leave ready to take on a project in your own yard!
