    A new guide will help you create a rain garden at your home! Rain gardens are depressions that temporarily fill with water when it rains. Runoff from your home, driveway and yard can be directed to a rain garden to solve drainage issues and protect our streams and the Chesapeake Bay.

    Rain Garden Design and Construction: A Northern Virginia Homeowner's Guide is a step-by-step manual for creating home rain gardens. The guide includes tips on materials, a worksheet to help you design and size your garden and a plant list. The guide is a joint publication of the Fairfax County Park Authority and the Northern Virginia Soil & Water Conservation District. Download your rain garden guide today!
