Date: 2011-10-13

The Florida Yards and Neighborhoods Program was developed by the Sarasota Bay Estuary Program and the University of Florida Extension Service in the early 1990s. It has become a statewide initiative to create attractive, low-maintenance Florida-Friendly landscapes that conserve water, decrease stormwater run-off and reduce the need for pesticides and fertilizer application.
