From rain barrels and downspout redirecting to rain gardens and no-mow lawns, there is a lot the average household can do to keep our waterways clean!
Join Caroline DiGiovanni, Watershed Restoration Educator for the University of Maryland Extension, and learn all about landscaping for stormwater management. Landscaping is about more than just pretty plants (though we love those, too!): landscaping includes your stone pathways (hardscaping), your gutter downspouts, and even the topography of your yard. Learn about the many ways we can be better to our waterways without even leaving the backyard!
Attendees will be entered into a raffle for a free rain barrel, which will be awarded at the end of the session.
