Rain Garden Workshop

A rain garden can beautify your property while reducing flooding by capturing stormwater. As soil and plantings absorb the rainwater, they help keep our drinking water safe by filtering out harmful chemicals and excess nutrients.

Learn about the importance of rain gardens, how they work, and how you can build a rain garden in your own yard. Speaker: Derron LaBrake, Principal of Wetlands & Ecology, Inc., a Certified Ecological Designer, Professional Wetland Scientist, a Board Member of Darby Creek Valley Association.

Sponsored by Newtown Township Environmental Advisory Council (EAC), Newtown Square in Bloom and Darby Creek Watershed Association with funding from the DEP Growing Greener Program.
