Weed the Rain Garden at Hopewell Early Childhood

Calendar Happens On Jul 14, 2022
Time 6 - 8 pm
Expired

Description

What: We will weed the rain garden and check out the pollinators visiting the wet prairie. NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY.

The rain garden and wet prairie were created due to flooding of this portion of the Mill Creek. They are designed to collect and store rain water running off of the parking lot and soccer fields, reducing the volume of water entering the creek. They were planted with native plants, but like most gardens is being over-run with weeds and invasive plants such as pear trees.
