Spring is just around the corner, when many homeowners begin thinking about their spring gardens.

Irvine Ranch Water District and Home Depot want to help. For the second year, IRWD and Home Depot are hosting two events geared toward assisting customers in updating their gardens to use less water.

Mark your calendars for these events scheduled for March 8 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Lake Forest store on 20021 Lake Forest Drive, Lake Forest and on March 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Irvine store located at 6200 Irvine Boulevard.

IRWD customers will:
