Water Wisdom Workshop

The City of Sonoma and Valley of the Moon Water District have been working together with the Sonoma Ecology Center, Napa Resource Conservation District, and Southern Sonoma County Resource Conservation District to organize a Water Wisdom Workshop. The event will be held at the Veteran’s Memorial Building located at 126 First Street West in the City of Sonoma on Saturday, February 21st from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The purpose of the event is to educate Sonoma and Napa Valley residents on the importance of conserving water. Speakers will present on a variety of water topics throughout the day; including: conservation, greywater, irrigation, creek stewardship, runoff and many other exciting water topics. Vendor booths will display water products, show off new innovations, and inform the public on their uses. In addition, vendors have been asked to send bilingual staff so many translators will be on hand to answer questions.


For more information, please contact Wendy Atkins, Stormwater Coordinator, City of Sonoma, at 933-2204
