Rainscaping Program | Sycamore

Ready to turn your landscape into a stormwater solution?

Join us for the Rainscaping Education Program, a two-day workshop designed to help you manage stormwater runoff and protect local waterways—right from your own backyard! Day 1 is on Oct. 14 and Day 2 is Oct. 21.

Whether you're a homeowner, gardener, naturalist, conservation advocate, or landscape professional, this hands-on program will teach you how to:

• Reduce pollution through smart landscape design
• Site, build, and maintain a rain garden
• Promote community awareness of rainfall management practices

Stormwater runoff carries pollutants into our rivers, lakes, and drinking water. Rainscaping helps slow and filter that runoff—making a big impact with simple changes.

Hosted by University of Illinois Extension in collaboration with Purdue Extension.
