Online webinar hosted by the Washington State Nursery and Landscape Association
At Gardens ALIVE Design, I believe that knowledge is one of the most powerful tools a homeowner can have. When you understand how your landscape works — and how to support it — you gain the confidence to make choices that help your garden thrive. Irrigation is one of the most important (and often misunderstood) pieces of that puzzle.
That’s why I’m excited to highlight an upcoming professional-level learning opportunity designed to demystify one of the most efficient watering methods available today: drip irrigation.
Why Drip Irrigation Matters
Drip irrigation is widely recognized as the most efficient way to deliver water directly to your plants’ root zones. It reduces waste, supports plant health, and adapts beautifully to a wide range of garden styles.
And yet… many gardeners have had mixed experiences. Maybe you didn’t understand the components. Maybe it felt complicated to install. Maybe it didn’t perform the way you hoped.
This webinar is your chance to sort out the good, the bad, and the downright confusing — with expert guidance.
Learn With a True Subject Matter Expert
The WSNLA is thrilled to welcome Mark Guthrie, Landscape Water Efficiency Program Manager with the Saving Water Partnership, to host this webinar. Mark brings deep expertise in irrigation design, water conservation, and real-world system performance.
During this one-hour session, Mark will cover:
- How drip irrigation compares to other watering methods
- Why it’s such an important tool for sustainable landscapes
- How drip systems function

Whether you’re a future drip-irrigation designer for your home or simply want to fill in your knowledge gaps, this session will give you the clarity and confidence you need.
