Take the following steps to conserve water in your lawn or garden:

• Raise the height of your lawn mower 2” so it requires less water during a drought.
• Check hose connections to be sure they aren’t leaking.
• Use a shut-off control on your hose when watering.
• Clean sidewalks and driveways with a broom instead of washing down with a hose.
• Apply mulch in your gardens and landscape to help retain moisture.
