Homeowners looking to transform their yard into a low-maintenance, eco-friendly oasis can join the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy on Thursday, July 10, from 7 to 8 p.m. at the Lower Frederick Township Building (53 Spring Mount Road, Schwenksville) for a free Rain Garden Workshop that will show them how to do just that.
Discover how a simple bowl-shaped garden can capture stormwater runoff, filter out pollutants, and recharge groundwater, all while drawing birds, butterflies, and other beneficial wildlife to your yard.
Experts will walk attendees through the step-by-step process of installing and maintaining a backyard rain garden, as well as explore other methods for managing stormwater on your property.
Stick around after the session for a cash-only native plant sale — perfect for jumpstarting your own rain garden the right way.
While the event is free, pre-registration is required on its website at this link.
