Rain gardens are a beautiful AND functional solution to stormwater runoff. Learn how to create one!
A rain garden is a water-loving garden that helps soak up rainwater from your roof, driveway, or lawn. It is designed to capture water from a 1″ rainstorm and slowly infiltrate it back into the ground. By using native flowers, grasses, shrubs, and trees, a rain garden can beautify your yard while reducing standing water. Rain gardens also provide habitat for:
Birds
Pollinators
Other beneficial insects
Join Gunpowder Valley Conservancy (GVC), a Baltimore County-based land trust and watershed restoration nonprofit, for a Rain Garden Workshop. The workshop will include a brief presentation on rain gardens, with an additional focus on proper rain garden maintenance. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the benefits of adding a rain garden to your yard and how to keep it beautiful and functioning as it matures.
