The good news is, we don’t have to do any watering these days, as Mother Nature seems to be taking care of it for us!

Stage 1 Watering Restrictions Introduced

Posted on by

Given how hot our spring has been, it’s probably no surprise that the City of Vancouver is introducing watering restrictions early this year.

Starting May 15, we are in Stage 1. This means:

Rainbarrels are provided for the rooftop gardens, and there are watering cans in the garden sheds to use. The rainbarrels can be refilled by hose if we don’t get rain.
