Water Week: Adopt-a-Rain Garden Tour and Training

Are you a Lancaster City resident who is interested in volunteering to care for a rain garden in your neighborhood? The City of Lancaster is launching the Adopt It! Adopt a Rain Garden program to engage residents who would like to support the city’s green infrastructure program by assisting with upkeep and general care of the city’s award-winning rain gardens. Join City Stormwater staff for a walking tour to learn more about rain gardens, how they work, and how they are maintained. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring a water bottle, and plan to get your hands in the dirt.

Note: This event is open to City residents and businesses only.

Where to Meet: We will meet for this walking tour in the parking lot of Community Mennonite Church of Lancaster, 328 W. Orange Street, Lancaster, PA.

Cancellation Policy: This event will be held rain or shine, with cancellation for severe weather made at the time of the event. If the event is rescheduled, attendees will be emailed and tickets will be automatically moved to the new date. If the event is canceled, attendees will be notified via email when possible and refunded.

Now celebrating its 10th anniversary, Lancaster Water Week seeks to educate and empower our community to care for the 1,400 miles of streams and rivers in Lancaster County. Join us for over 60 events as we paddle, explore, volunteer, and take action for the streams and rivers of Lancaster County!
