Persistent drought in California and changing water use regulations present a challenge to almond orchards throughout the state of California. The need to use reduced water and try new methods to conserve water can feel overwhelming.

Perennial cover crops offer a solution to these challenges by improving water infiltration and holding capacity in the soil. 

Join the Oakville Bluegrass Cooperative on December 5th to learn about the benefits of perennial cover crops for water conservation. Kelsey Fenn, UC Davis PhD Student will share how perennial cover crops can benefit soil water. Learn more about how Oakville bluegrass, a novel perennial cover crop with reverse season dormancy, can help your orchard conserve water.

A short presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
