 Rain, Rain, Don’t Go Away!

Rainwater is typically managed via storm drains or ditches that transfers the unfiltered water directly to our creeks, rivers, and lakes. Along the way, the rain picks up various pollutants, trash, excess fertilizer from lawns, sidewalks and streets. This causes watershed issues for aquatic species as well as communities who utilize this water for drinking water. Learn how to create a rain garden in your yard to protect the watershed. Why should I have a rain garden? What is one?

What are the benefits? How does it function? How large should it be?

Join us to be inspired by Jean to create a rain garden in your yard! 

EMG’s: This Presentation qualifies as 1 hour of Education in Volunteer Central
