Water is one of our most precious resources. Conserving it is one of the aims of the conscientious, eco-urban dweller. Drip Irrigation is a form of landscape watering that utilizes low-flow and conservation principles, with very little water wasted to runoff, over-watering, or evaporation. It is also a system design that is versatile and efficient. This class will cover such topics as: Z the benefits and limitations of drip irrigation; Z the basic tools and supplies needed to install your own drip irrigation system; Z the role that pressure and flow play in drip irrigation systems; Z the cost of drip irrigation systems. This class we will “de-mist-ify” residential watering systems. Taught by Jon Bauer, longtime irrigation system installer and gardener. Class takes place at a home-owner installed drip irrigation site in North Oakland. CALL TO PRE-REGISTER AND FOR LOCATION
