Rain Gardens in Delaware  

A rain garden is a method of storm water management to reduce erosion, flooding, and pollution associated with excessive amounts of runoff.  Rain gardens provide an aesthetically pleasing way to reduce impact on the environment.  Several rain gardens have been built throughout Delaware and the goal is to inspire more people to install these gardens.
