Desert rain gardens do more than just harvest rain - they are living, ecological systems that improve the health of our environment. Rain gardening can help reduce flooding, water native plants and trees, grow food plants, sink rain into our aquifer and keep pollution out of our groundwater, create habitat, shade and cool streets and buildings, and beautify our homes and neighborhoods.
Whether you have a small patio or a big landscape to tend to, you can use sustainable rain gardening practices to improve your relationship to our desert ecosystem. WMG is excited to be publishing our second, updated version of our popular Rain Garden Care Handbook, a seasonal rain gardening field guide used by ordinary citizens and professional landscapers alike!
