Spring is right around the corner, and that means many people are considering how to manage their lawns. However, Stage Two drought restrictions in Wichita could significantly impact the growing season.

Jeff Baker, owner of The Grounds Guys, said prolonged water restrictions will not only affect his business but also Wichita’s overall economy. He believes it could be catastrophic for his business and others in the industry if it doesn’t rain soon.

“For any landscaping company, a Stage Three watering restriction would initially be devastating for a lot of companies in our industry.”
