The city of Fresno has expanded their Lawn to Garden Rebate program. Residents who want to replace their traditional lawn with drought-tolerant native plants may now receive financial aid from the city.
The rebate is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and applicants must be approved before beginning any work.
The residential rebate covers up to 1,500 square feet of lawn conversion. Applicants can recieve up to $3000 for a completed project that creates a beautiful, drought resistant garden.
The commercial rebate covers up to 4,000 square feet of lawn conversion and offers up to $8000 in potential savings.
The department of water has also installed its own demonstration garden, filled with colorful, drought-resistant plants, to show that water-wise landscaping doesn’t have to sacrifice on aesthetics.
Residents and business owners interested in starting the process, can begin their application here.
