Castleton Community Center

Free and open to the public

Rain gardens are a beautiful and practical way to absorb stormwater and reduce rurunoff, provide food and habitat for pollinators and other insects and animals and enhance your property and protect your shoreline.
Learn how to assess your soil for the best location, choose native plants suited to your property, installation techniques, and contact information for state and local resources. Obtain a free copy of “The Vermont Rain Garden Manual”.
Presented by Becky Tharp, Program Manager, Green Infrastructure Collaborative, Lake Champlain Sea Grant and Department of Environmental Conservation.

Sponsored by the Lake Bomoseen Association and the Lake Champlain Sea Grant Program.
