Want to build a rain garden, but don’t know where to start? We will introduce the new CNT Rain Garden Educational Facility and discuss the design process, comparing the various concept plans and providing an explanation of how the final design was developed. We will also talk about the benefits and constraints of green infrastructure and what problems we can solve with stormwater treatment. Case studies monitored and installed by CNT will also be referenced to help participants develop the ideally sized rain garden for their property.
