Perris, CA (March 30, 2022) — Do you have a beautiful, water-efficient landscape that is the envy of your neighborhood? If so, it may be award-winning.

Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) customers who have shown a commitment to drought-tolerant landscaping are encouraged to participate in the 2022 Inland Empire Landscape Contest, which is accepting applications from April 1 through May 17, 2022.

The contest is hosted by regional water suppliers and cities across the Inland Empire area, including the area served by EMWD.

Winning entrants will receive a $500 prize and be placed into a social media voting campaign for a chance to be featured in an ad placement in Inland Empire Magazine.

“Our team at EMWD is excited to see the entries from our customers who have shown a commitment to creating beautiful, water-efficient landscapes at their homes,” EMWD Board President Phil Paule said. “California friendly landscapes are both beautiful and important to helping conserve our water supplies, and we look forward to celebrating the winners who have done their part to adopt a culture of water wise living in our region.”
