We’ll share the cost to install a rain garden on your property to keep pollution out of the Elizabeth River. Together we’ll make the river cleaner and your yard beautiful.
Rain gardens use amended soil and native plants to slow, absorb and filter polluted runoff before it ever reaches the river.
Application Period: Site Visit list is currently full. Please sign up for our waitlist.
Approval Process: Staff will review and respond to all applications after January 1, 2023
Target Installation: Early spring 2023 through early fall 2023.
My garden is looking great. I’m really happy with all the plants – the selection, the placement. Bravo! On to clean water.
