Water saving program Garden in a Box returns
Aspen, CO - The city of Aspen Utilities Department has partnered with Resource Central to offer the Garden in a Box program. Designed for Colorado's climate and water conservation needs, Garden in a Box offers professionally curated, low-water garden kits to transform yards into vibrant, sustainable landscapes.
Each Garden in a Box kit includes a selection of starter plants, plant-by-number maps for easy installation, and a comprehensive care guide for watering schedules and seasonal maintenance tips. By opting for these water-efficient gardens, participants can contribute to water conservation efforts.
To incentivize participation and promote water-saving practices, the city is providing a limited number of discounted Garden in a Box kits. Residents can choose from any of the eight full size garden kits, each tailored to Aspen's climate.
Pre-orders for Garden in a Box are available now. To activate the discount, select the city of Aspen upon checkout and select your closest pickup location. City of Aspen water customers receive a $25 discount on each garden.
Pickup for all pre-orders will be held in early June with local pickup. Customers will be notified of the pickup location and date. Visit resourcecentral.org/gardens to sign up today.
