Queen Creek's grass conversion program has given out all of its current funding and isn't taking new applications. The last cycle paid $2 per square foot, up to $5,000, with 30% plant canopy required in the front and back yards. Here's what it asked for, so you're ready if it reopens.
Replacing a 1,000 sq ft lawn here also saves about 50,000 gallons of water a year, or about $250 off your water bill at typical Valley water rates. Use the rebate calculator to see your own number and pick plants that count.
