Laundry-to-Landscape: Hands-On Graywater Workshop

Re​u​se Water with Graywater!​ ​Learn how to convert your own washing machine into a water-saving laundry-to-landscape graywater system. This system is low in cost, doesn’t require a permit, and is great for irrigating trees, bushes, and other perennial plants.
In this hands-on workshop sponsored by EBMUD and led by Greywater Action, you’ll learn about and participate in the construction and installation of a real laundry-to-landscape graywater system. No prior experience is required. You will gain the knowledge and experience to plan and install your own graywater system.
The workshop will cover:
Graywater principles
Best plants to water with graywater
Common
pitfalls and how to avoid them
Steps, materials, and installation for a simple graywater system from the washing machine
