Potential research topics include areas like improved salt-sensitive landscape plants, creating innovative landscape irrigation techniques, and reducing water budgets in California. Please review our call for proposals to understand current criteria for our selection process. Our foundation was created more than 20 years ago to support turfgrass researchers. Founded by former golf course superintendents, major funding for projects came from the golf industry, but as the times change, we adapt to serve our communities. Consider supporting our efforts by giving generously to ensure that researchers can develop landscape conservation solutions to benefit local communities.
