Participants will visit five sites on foot as the gardeners share their experiences and dispense wisdom for aspiring rain gardeners. Rain gardens are growing in popularity as an attractive, low-maintenance landscape alternative that helps protect and restore water quality. They are designed and planted to capture rain water so it can penetrate into the soil. This reduces the storm water runoff that takes pollutants from the air, yards and streets and carries them into lakes, rivers and wetlands.
