Landscape Turf & Lawn Transformation Portal

In California, we recognize that water challenges impact all communities, but not equally. Replacing lawns with drought tolerant landscaping helps build climate resilience, but can be expensive for frontline communities who are increasingly vulnerable to climate-change impacts.

As an innovative approach that prioritizes equity, the Landscape Transformation pilot program will directly help California’s frontline communities by providing hands-on assistance to plan and install climate resilient landscapes at no cost to those communities.
