Is irrigation necessary?

Irrigation systems are necessary on the Outer Banks if you would like anything to grow without struggle or loss. Sand is the main ingredient of our soil mix and it does not retain moisture, therefore frequent watering is a must, especially in the summer season. Irrigation systems can transform your yard from a dry sparse minefield of sandspurs to a lush beautiful and useful space that your whole family can enjoy. Do you need a natural privacy or wind barrier? An irrigation system can help you quickly grow a natural barrier of shrubs and trees. If you are on the oceanfront it can aid in developing a substantial protective dune.
