Welcome Santa Margarita Water District Customers
SMWD will provide a rebate to single-family residents who convert their front yard using a My Avant Garden landscape conversion kit. Rebate amounts will vary based on the type of kit purchased and installed (based on area of landscaping) and the type of landscape being converted. Installation services are also available for approved SMWD customers who have been accepted into the rebate program. To apply for the SMWD My Avant Garden rebate click here.
My Avant Garden native plant conversion kits are designed based on the square footage of your yard.
The garden will demonstrate diversity with several plant types and seasonal flowers, all of which will attract birds, butterflies, hummingbirds and beneficial pollinators. The garden will compliment and blend with the architecture of the house and will look truly interesting and unique, especially as it comes alive with beneficial insects, birds, and butterflies.
