Come and learn the basics of rain gardens and how they can help both your garden and the environment thrive!

In this one-hour class you will learn about rain gardens and how you can solve local water problems by installing one. Throughout the class we will cover how a rain garden works and how it is different from other gardens. We will also go over the environmental benefits a rain garden provides, the beauty it can flaunt, and the maintenance that a rain garden needs to thrive. This class is an introduction to a five-week course, Master Rain Gardener Class, that goes more in-depth and explains the process of installing a rain garden.

This project has been funded wholly or in part through Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy’s Nonpoint Source Program by the United States Protection Agency.

Presented by Huron-Clinton Metroparks.
