In this video we talk water savings in foodscaping and take a quick tour of our frontyard foodscape. Our waterwise foodscape design savings 75% of the water when compared to grass and our maximum food production design saves 25% compared to grass. They both look beautiful and produce the most nutritious and delicious food right in our front yard.
We also offer tips on how to design a water-wise foodscape and how to conserve water with drip irrigation, mulch and water-wise perennials.

Hiya, thank you for the tips. Saving water is the way to go.
Our pleasure! 🙌
I love nerdy garden math. Love the water savings!
Us too!
Awesome!
Great foodscape! Keep growing.
Thank you!
Rotary sprinklers waste water, a soaker hose would help to conserve even more.
Totally agree about rotary sprinklers. We use only drip irrigation for all our foodscaped areas. One of our main tips in the video was to switch from sprinklers to drip. I’m not sure how soaker hoses compare (probably pretty close), but drip is 95% to 99% efficient.
Do you guys offer classes on how to design a foodscape lawn? I live in Eagle Mountain and would love help!
Here’s a link to our events and classes page. We don’t have a class coming up right now but we post them their when we schedule them. foodscapingutah.org/events-classes/
Hopefully you can also get some design ideas by watching our tour videos 😊
How do you keep your Creeping thyme clean? Mine filled up with sticks and leaves and I was afraid I couldn't clean it out without hurting the plant.
I think you could pull it out by hand being a bit careful without too much trouble. We don't have sticks and leaves in ours but we do hand weed weeds that are right in with the thyme. Even if you do a little damage, it should recover and refill in fairly easily.
