Learn to Plant a Rain Garden -- Installation at Lakewood Park

Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 4:00 - 5:30 PM
Lakewood Historical Society/Oldest Stone House - 14710 Lake Rd., Lakewood, OH 44107

Rain gardens are attractive landscaped areas planted with perennial native plants that do not mind getting "wet feet." Build in a saucer shape, rain gardens allow water to percolate into the ground, reducing the amount of pollution that gets into our storm sewers and Lake Erie! We will install a rain garden at the Lakewood Historical Society/Oldest Stone House to demonstrate how residents can incorporate rain gardens into their yards.
