March Meeting on 3/14

You are invited to join us on 3/14 at the Bartram Trail Library for a presentation by Master Gardener, Dianne Battle, on supporting local butterflies and other pollinators.  The meeting starts at 10AM.  Master Gardeners can receive CEU credit for attending.  Refreshments will be served, and we appreciate you letting us know if you'll attend so we'll have enough snacks for all.

In the meantime, a reminder that Daylight Saving Time takes effect on Sunday, March 10.  Set your clocks ahead by 1 hour on Saturday night.  And St. Johns River Water Management District's Daylight Saving Time water schedule goes into effect.  Read about it at their website SJRWMD Watering Restrictions page.  If your irrigation timer still challenges you, here is an article on how to set and maintain it, when to run it and when you can turn it off without adversely affecting your lawn.  Overwatering not only can create problems for your lawn, but it costs you more money.  Save the green in your wallet and in your yard!

See the Helping the Planet Stay Healthy in our Resources section for more timely information.
