Is your garden looking a little droopy in the August heat? 🌞 In this episode of The Pantry Chat, we’re sharing 7 water-saving gardening tips that will help you keep your garden alive and thriving, without running the sprinkler all day long.
From mulching and deep watering to smart irrigation, dry farming techniques, and choosing heat-tolerant plants, we’re covering the tried-and-true methods we’ve used in dry climates and here on our North Idaho homestead. Whether you're gardening in a drought or just want to be a better steward of your water, these tips will help you grow more with less.
