Undergraduate Research 

Sarah Tooley, BLA 2020

As an LAEP Extension intern, Sarah designed 5 landscapes following established water wise design principles which are: planning and design, plant selection and hydro zones along with practical turf areas. The purpose of these designs was to demonstrate that water wise designs can both be water efficient as well as functional, sustainable and aesthetically pleasing. The results of these planning and design efforts are currently being installed into residences in two Utah communities. 

Sarah presented her research at the Utah Conference on Undergraduate Research (UCUR) and Research on Capitol Hill (ROCH).
