Redford Rain Garden Planting!
Description
You are invited to install a beautiful rain garden at Claude Allison Park! This garden of Michigan native plants will add colorful blooms and support native wildlife and pollinators. All ages and gardening experience welcome! Gloves, tools, and water will be provided. Please come dressed in weather appropriate gardening clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty and closed toed shoes.
How do rain gardens improve water quality in your Rouge River? They collect, absorb, & filter stormwater coming off of the pavement. This reduces the amount of polluted rainwater that rushes into the storm drain, dumping into the river. Rain gardens minimize pollution, erosion, and flooding! Plus, they are planted with beautiful native plants that provide a home for songbirds, butterflies and other pollinators.
