We recognize that not everyone can build a rain garden on their own property though, so you can also become certified by participating in a public rain garden installation or volunteering at a public rain garden.Upon certification, you'll receive a Master Rain Gardener t-shirt, sign, and certificate (included in the cost of registration).What is a rain garden?Rain gardens work with nature to collect and filter rainwater that runs off impervious surfaces like rooftops and driveways. Impervious surfaces lead to increases in surface runoff and often result in increased flooding and stream bank erosion. As water travels over impervious surfaces it also has the potential to pick up pollutants. Polluted stormwater runoff enters our rivers and lakes and is one of the leading threats to water quality in the U.S. Rain gardens naturally manage stormwater by infiltrating precipitation and allowing it to soak into the ground rather than sending it directly to storm sewers and nearby streams untreated.
