Our purpose:
Central Utah Gardens have been created to demonstrate and encourage the wise use of water in Utah landscapes. The average home owner uses 60% of their water to irrigate lawns and gardens. The good news is, this water use can be greatly reduced without sacrificing the beauty of your landscape. In fact, water-efficient landscapes often turn out to be more colorful, more interesting, and more diverse than traditional landscapes.

Central Utah Water Conservancy District has created the gardens to support its commitment to conservation, and to encourage an ethic that promotes responsible management of our water resources within the community.

What you’ll learn at the Gardens.
At the gardens and in our series of classes you will learn the steps of water-efficient Utah landscaping, also known as waterwise landscaping. Often, when people think of saving water in a landscape, they picture a yard full of rock, cactus, and yucca plants. This simply isn’t true! Water-efficient landscapes can be anything from an English cottage garden style to a formal garden to a southwest garden style. The key is to follow the seven water-efficient landscaping steps that help you use water wisely in your Utah landscape.
