Plants and Shrubs for a Rain Garden

Join a walking tour to view native plants that are well suited to a rain garden. Rain gardens help to reduce stormwater runoff, filter out water pollutants and help to recharge the groundwater. Native plants have adapted to local conditions and can handle both dry and wet conditions. They slow down runoff and their roots help to filter out pollutants as the water drains back into the soil. The tour meets at the Green Kiosk entrance gate off the upper level parking lot. Call 914-864-7264 for more information. Free
