Narrative

Have you thought about what happens to water in your yard when it rains? Are you interested in tips that can help you create and sustain an attractive garden or landscape while protecting the environment? Have you heard about or would you like to learn more about ‘rain gardens’? If so, please join us for our workshop Green Solutions to Pollution: Homeowner Practices for Managing Stormwater and Polluted Runoff.

During this one-day workshop, we will provide information about how you can manage rainfall runoff on your property. You will also learn valuable yet simple tips about how to minimize resources needed for your home garden and/or landscape. The workshop will include a hands-on demonstration and installation of a rain garden, as well as a rain barrel.
