Are you interested in learning about rain gardens? Do you have issues with stormwater runoff on your property? Come and learn about how adding a rain garden is one functional landscaping strategy that may be able to help you capture the rain on your property while providing food and shelter for pollinators and birds. You'll also learn about WDM's own Stormwater Assistance Program (SWAP).
This event includes an introductory look at the new rain garden installed last fall in front of the library by the designer.
This program is presented by Lexi Young from Young Gardens and WDM Engineering’s Isaac Svobada. No registration required.
