Texas A&M AgriLife Extension-Travis County kicks off the 2022 educational series with A Lawn of All Seasons – Best Management Practices for a Healthy Happy Lawn, on April 20th at 10 am to noon.  Dean Minchillo, Extension Program Specialist with the Urban Water Team, will provide tips on keeping a lawn healthy during drought or watering restrictions.

 

The program will be presented utilizing a webinar format and interested parties are required to register.  

 

Dean will talk about how various species handle drought stress, and the best management practices for fertilization, maintenance, irrigation, and mowing heights.

 

“Waterwise Strategies for Austin Gardens “ is the 2022 theme for the educational series. Other topics planned include Irrigation Controller Selection, Water Conservation in Austin, and Permaculture Strategies for Water Conservation.  All programs are presented by experts from Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, Travis County Master Gardeners, and Austin Water.

 

Due to technological constraints, the webinars have a limit of 100 attendees.  Those who register but are not among the first 100 attendees or who miss the webinar for any reason will be able to view it later.  After registering, participants will be provided a link for the live session or to view a recording of the program.

 

You can submit questions during the webinar and get answers live as time allows. Questions that aren’t addressed during the webinar will receive answers via email.  Viewers of the recorded sessions can send their questions to the Travis County Master Gardener help desk at travismg@ag.tamu.edu.
