Desert Water Agency encourages customers to skip overseeding their lawns this fall! By going gold, you can:
- Save money! Seed and labor costs are expensive.
- Conserve water! Overseeding is water intensive. Going gold is the sustainable choice.
- Improve air quality! Less mowing or scalping means less dust and particles in the air.
- Maintain healthy grass! Overseeding can stress your lawn, causing it not to look as nice next season.
Customers who go gold can get a free We Went Gold sign to let neighbors know you decided to save water! Email us at outreach@dwa.org to request your free sign or have your HOA added to our We Went Gold list.
Tired of keeping up with your grass? Consider updating your landscaping with desert-friendly landscaping. DWA offers a turf removal rebate of $2 per square foot for customers. An additional $1 per square foot is available for residents of Palm Springs, for a total of $3 per square foot.
Cathedral City also has a turf conversion program, which can be found at www.cathedralcity.gov/home/showdocument?id=4120.
