Rain Garden Class
By NHS Staff
On Friday, June 13th, we offered a residential rain garden class to teach people about the role of rain gardens in controlling storm water runoff. Besides alleviating water runoff, rain gardens can also be a beautiful addition to your landscape!
And what better way to learn about rain gardens than in the rain? Kudos to all of our dedicated participants!
This class series was made possible by the Greater New Haven Green Fund.
