Think Green Thursday: Rain Gardens

Do you have an area in your landscape that always stays wet? Do you have a small river flowing through your yard when it rains? A great way to tackle these problems is to install a rain garden to capture that excess water and use plants to help reduce the pollution that might otherwise make its way into our drinking water.

The class will be held Thursday, October 8th from 5:30p.m to 6:30pm at The North Park Library: 849 Sharpe Rd, Burlington, NC 27217. Taught by NC Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteers of Alamance County.

The class is free but registration is required.
