The festivities begin at 10:00 a.m. with Louis Mickler speaking on low volume irrigation. Hoping to save water while keeping the landscape looking its best? Then don’t miss hearing the “guru†of low volume irrigation. Mickler, a popular speaker on the subject, is a Master Gardener with Harris County Precinct 2.
