Landscapers Share Lower-Impact Ways To Make Your Lawn And Garden Ever ‘Greener’

Even in the most sustainable of greenspaces, you're going to need to water your plants. Johnny Kunen, president and owner of Native NY Gardens says he often installs irrigation systems with controllers from Rachio, a certified B-corp that makes smart watering systems aimed at conserving water.

"Rachio Irrigation connects via Wi-Fi to nearby weather stations and postpones cycles when it's raining," Kunen told HuffPost.

This controller works with an app letting you control and manage your watering schedule from your phone, track water usage and make schedules for watering. It's compatible with 99% of existing sprinkler controllers and can often be installed by yourself in 30 minutes or less.

Promising Review: "Instructions were clear and easy to follow.

"Johnny Kunen, president and owner of Native NY Gardens says he often installs irrigation systems with controllers from Rachio, a certified B-corp that makes smart watering systems aimed at conserving water"Everything worked exactly as it should have. App was intuitive and easy to use - Love it. Added a Hunter Sprinkler RainClick Rain sensor after installation and that was equally simple to do. One big benefit to having an app driven system is if the power goes out to the controller once power is restored everything is back the way it was within seconds. No Clock reset, no reprogramming, nada...

I love it and would recommend it to anyone." — Amazon Customer
