Tom will share his knowledge and experience by providing participants with a basic knowledge of different watering systems and how to program them to make watering almost fully automatic. \u201cAutomated irrigation will free up quite a bit of your time once it is properly designed and installed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Tom is a retired telecommunication engineer and local gardener who has lived in California, Arizona and Alaska and for the past 9 years has lived in Carlsborg, Washington. He started using drip irrigation in 1979 in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Central California and continues to sing its praises today.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tribe-events-single-event-description tribe-events-content\">\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">The Green Thumb Education Series, sponsored by the W<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">ashington\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">S<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">tate\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">U<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">niversity<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">\u00a0Clallam County Master Gardeners, is held on the second and fourth Thursday\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">of\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46420145 BCX8\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"No Spacing\">each month through October.
