Rain Garden Design and Construction Demystified

March 9 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Learn how to landscape your home for a changing climate, creating resilient yards and features that can help mitigate the impacts of flood and drought, with this in-depth workshop featuring Alberta Low Impact Design Partnership (ALIDP) Executive Director Leta Vaan Duin.

Focusing on rain gardens, numerous local examples will be used to help you site, size, design, construct and maintain your own piece of resilient paradise. Alternatives to conventional turf will also be explored. Participants will be invited to submit their own drawings after the class for one-on-one assistance with rain garden siting and sizing.

  • Information sessions
  • Design tutorials
  • One-on-one – expert advice
  • Advice for taking on a community-led Low Impact Design (LID) project

Participants will leave this workshop with a good understanding of the importance and function of LID and will have had the opportunity to design their own LID project.
