Spotlight: Rain Gardens
Spring is finally here and it's time to start thinking about your yard. Try installing a rain garden this year. It's a simple project you can do yourself without a large expense and customizable for every yard. Along with looking great, rain gardens help reduce stormwater runoff, pollution and are a form of flood protection.
What exactly is a RAIN GARDEN? A rain garden is a depressed, landscaped garden planted with native plant species that is designed to retain and infiltrate stormwater runoff from individual residential or commercial lots, sump pumps and roofs. They provide substantial benefits to the community and the environment. Rain gardens come in all shapes and sizes!
