As you return from holiday adventures, please remember that we are in the season of water restrictions here at home. To check the current water restriction level in your area - head to mpdc.nz/water

When it comes to watering your garden, timing matters. Watering early in the morning or later in the evening helps reduce evaporation, meaning more water actually reaches your plants. Using mulch around garden beds can also help lock moisture into the soil for longer.

Saving water at home helps protect supply for everyone during the warmer months. For FAQs on water use and restrictions, visit mpdc.nz/water
