Learn how to build your very own backyard rain garden! Federation staff will teach you how to design and care for a rain garden that will provide great habitat for birds and other native critters. Discover how these gardens protect our creeks and waterways, what plants to choose, where to get them, and how to plant and care for your rain garden. Tour the rain gardens and displays at the federation’s Coastal Education Center and get some ideas for you own garden. Participants will receive a complimentary downspout to get projects started at home.
The event is FREE for federation members and $5 for nonmembers. All proceeds will benefit the federation’s education programming. Event fees can be paid in-person on the day of the event or in advance at the Coastal Education Center. This event is suitable for all ages.
