Showers to Flowers

Take a gander at a this article in the Voice: Showers to Flowers

The article is about using gray water to irrigate home gardens. What is gray water you ask? Gray water is recycled water from sinks, washers and showers. Wiki Article

Marco Gonzalez is featured in the article..." Gray-water systems are designed to provide irrigation, not potable water.

"We should be putting in plants that don’t use a lot of water, regardless of where the water comes from."
