Whose Water Is It Anyway?

Season 3 Episode 303 | 26m 46s

After experiencing the heat and dryness of the desert sun, the Schley’s have a whole new appreciation for water, and with help from the City of Arvada, they explore the question of where exactly their water comes from. From the continental divide to their faucets and fields, they follow the Colorado watershed and learn that water should be used wisely in their new endeavors.
