- Composting for Soil Health: Composting organic waste adds nutrients to the soil, improves water retention, and reduces fertilizer needs.
- Xeriscaping with Drought-Tolerant Plants: Incorporating drought-tolerant plants, such as succulents, cacti, and native wildflowers, reduces the need for watering.
