Free Friendly Landscape Training Classes

September 4-October 9, 2010 The City of San Marino is sponsoring a series of four free presentations on water preservation by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. The California Friendly Landscape Training classes have proven to be an important and successful tool for reducing outdoor water use through the education of professional landscapers and home gardeners.
