Rain Gardens

A rain garden is designed to treat stormwater runoff and allow more water to infiltrate. In your neighborhood, they benefit your pond by intercepting and limiting pollutants and reducing flooding. Rain gardens are vegetated, shallow basins in a landscape designed to collect and filter pollutants from stormwater runoff. They add beauty and can increase pollinator diversity in your lawn. Rain gardens are generally low maintenance; after establishment they often require little to no watering or weeding.
