It's summer and time to save water and money!  Utah Rivers Council's Rip Your Strip Program gives you all the tools you need to plan, plant and maintain a gorgeous low-water landscape.

Since 2005 almost 5,000 people have pledged to Rip Their Strip!  Every one of those participants saved on average almost 5,000 gallons of water per year.  What’s more, many people converted more than just their parking strip to low water landscaping, resulting in an average savings of just over 8,000 gallons of water per year. 

 

Utah Rivers Council provides you the instructions, examples, incentives, and confidence that you’ll need to convert your traditional parking strip into an exciting and beautiful example of what low water-use landscaping can be
