This rain garden collects stormwater that is collected from the gutters of a large building. The photo features the garden during a rainstorm, holding the water and the native plants within it are keeping it stable and utilizing the water.

The Problem

Many traditional water retention areas simply move water to another location or temporarily pool the water. This leads to sediment and pollutants in the water, as well as erosion. When stormwater has a place to go, rather than just staying stagnant or becoming runoff, it is less likely to cause flooding, erosion, or carry pollutants.

Our Solutions

Rain gardens and other native plant management practices are designed for optimum water infiltration. By using native plants in rain gardens and water retention areas, the deeper root system allows more water to soak into the ground, and helps to filter it in the process. There are three methods we use for stormwater management:

  • Rain gardens
  • Bioswales
  • Infiltration beds
