We have been very lucky this year in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia regarding rain fall but the past two years remain clear in my mind. We were in a definate drought and it was very evident at The Woods Resort golf course as the greens burned to brown and water restrictions were posted for residents.
Here's a nifty tip I'd like to share with you to conserve water while watering your garden. Running a sprinkler for two hours can use up to 500 gallons of water. To figure out the right amount to water, put an empty tuna can on your lawn. When it's full, you've watered about the right amount. So the next time you make some tuna salad, don't throw that can away so fast.
