Friends of the Rouge

Inspirational, educational, and just plain beautiful sign for your rain garden. By posting this sign, you'll be connecting your rain garden to the 1,000 Rain Gardens for the Rouge campaign, and you'll also be helping to support your neighbors to follow your lead by planting their own rain gardens. Our goal is to see EVERY rain garden that is visible to the public get a sign.

NOTE: your rain garden must be authorized by Friends of the Rouge to be allowed to purchase a sign. If you purchase a sign for which you have not been authorized, Friends of the Rouge will reimburse your purchase, less any processing fees. To submit your rain garden request for authorization, please send photos of your rain garden (ideally showing before and after construction) to RainSmart@TheRouge.org.

Thank you, and happy rain gardening!
