Rain Garden/Rain Barrel Workshop

The Greater Elkhart County Stormwater Partnership will help homeowners install rain gardens and rain barrels in most of Elkhart County. For homeowners who qualify, the program can reimburse up to $250 for rain garden plants and up to $50 per rain barrel (maximum two rain barrels per parcel). This workshop discusses how to install and maintain rain gardens and rain barrels. It will cover the importance of managing stormwater runoff from your home and how you can harness the free water falling from the sky to water your flowers and trees.
