Native Plants and Water Conservation

Georgia Green Landscape Stewards Certification Series

The Georgia Green Landscape Stewards Program, created by University of Georgia Extension, is a five-week certification program for businesses and residences in Georgia. This program series will provide fact-based information to clientele and help them implement sustainable green practices in their landscape. Georgia landowners have a large impact on natural resources, such as water, wildlife, and native plants. With sustainable land management practices, we can help protect these natural resources for generations to come.

After learning about sustainable land management practices, participants can measure their own activities with the program metric scorecard and earn certification status for their landscape. 

This five-week program will educate residents on what they can do to have their landscapes certified as a Green Georgia Landscape. This is week two and we will be covering native plants and water conservation.
