Rain Garden Maintenance

Join us to support keeping the rain garden healthy and thriving! Participants will help remove weeds and invasive plants to give native wildflowers and trees the space they need to grow. Maintenance of this garden supports pollinators, protects local wildlife, and helps the rain garden manage stormwater naturally. Tools, gloves, and guidance will be provided.

Help make the Fletchers Creek SNAP neighbourhood more sustainable and ready for a changing climate. This event is part of Fletchers Creek Sustainable Neighbourhood Action Plan (SNAP).
