| Impact Report | Fair Booth A booth on “Xeriscape” was constructed by the agriculture agent and displayed at the Eastern New Mexico State Fair. The booth focused on the seven principles of xeriscape and highlighted twenty of the xeriscape plants that were planted in the demonstration garden at the Spring River Park and Zoo. Viewers were encouraged to utilize the low-water needs plants in the Pecos Valley area to conserve water use in landscape situations. One viewer noted that she now knew the name of a plant that she had been interested in growing and, due to the booth's information, would be able to do so. |
