LauderScape 2012





On Saturday, May 12 from 9 am to 1 pm, the City of Fort Lauderdale will host its second LauderScape at Holiday Park Gymnasium.  Last year’s LauderScape was a great success and this year’s should be even better!  Almost 200 people have already registered online (see the form at the bottom of the page).

LauderScape was conceived to encourage outdoor water conservation through Florida-Friendly Landscaping.  Florida-Friendly Landscaping uses 9 principles to promote landscapes that not only save water but are good for the Florida environment.

Three experts in their fields will speak on the Florida-Friendly 9 Principles, Sustainable Pest Management and Plant Nutrition, and Rain Barrels and Water Conservation.  Attendees will get a chance to win one of four rain barrels or native trees plus many other goodies to help them landscape their yards properly.
Registration closes soon so please register immediately.  For questions or additional information about LauderScape, please e-mail lauderscape@fortlauderdale.gov or call 954-828-4757.
