Rain gardens can be a beautiful addition to any yard and can allow the planting of some truly interesting plants. They also help the environment by infiltrating water to clean it and restore the water table and base flow (the water that seeps through the ground to our creeks). Sean will join us virtually to discuss how to design and build a rain garden, including placement, construction, and plant choices.

Refreshments and a business section to follow.
