As we face another dry season, one of the best things Coloradans can do is plant for the place we call home. That means choosing Colorado native plants, drought-tolerant flowers, and water-wise landscaping that can handle our heat, support pollinators, and keep our yards beautiful without wasting one of our most precious resources: water.

Colorado is also taking action statewide. I activated the state’s Drought Task Force and Phase 2 of Colorado’s Drought Response Plan to help track conditions, support communities, and coordinate resources where they are needed most. Whether it’s a backyard garden, a schoolyard, a park, or a neighborhood median, every water-wise choice adds up. By planting native, watering wisely, and planning ahead, we can protect Colorado’s water, support our farmers and ranchers, and keep our state beautiful for generations to come.

Colorado grows best when we grow wisely.🌱💧
