Green Corner: Learn to Make a Rain Garden

Register by Thursday, February 23

Recent footage of gushing, flooding water in California reminds us that major rain storms can be damaging, even in Michigan. Heavy rain runs off rooftops, driveways, and patios, causing flooding and dumping pollutants and sediments directly into sewers and rivers. Building a rain garden is a great way to slow the run-off so it can soak in and replenish groundwater supply, all while providing habitat for butterflies and songbirds.
