The family's yard features drought tolerant plantings and space for a chicken coop.
The Campodonico/Lave's collect rain water to use on their outdoor landscaping. Today, they are looking for even more creative ways to save water.
Margaret, Reynie and their three children have been collecting their shower water for years. It's a habit for them that has provided wonderful garden bounty.
Whenever possible, Reynie Lave waters his garden with water captured from overflow (rinsing veggies, etc) from his kitchen sink.
In lieu of a traditional grass lawn, the family chose to install a wonderful patio geared for outdoor entertainment with bocce ball court, outdoor dining and a warm hearth.
The Campodonico/Lave family remodeled a lovely water-wise home that includes: low flow toilets, zero waste reverse osmosis system, buckets in every shower, water catchment system, drought tolerant landscaping, and drip irrigation for their garden box.
