To cap off lake friendly living month, Ryan Staychock with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Seneca County will hold a rain garden seminar at Vince’s Park in Seneca Falls this upcoming Wednesday from 6:30-8:00p.
A rain garden is a garden that manages and treats small volumes of storm water from impervious surfaces such as the roof of your house.
Staychock says the gardens act as passive filtration systems to filter rain water before it can make its way into a river or lake. “I think rain gardens are one way to take responsibility for the developments that we are responsible for,” he said on FLX Morning.
Registration for the seminar can be done at flrwa.org.
