"Join Green Venture for a drop-in rain garden information session and native plant giveaway!

A rain garden is a specially designed garden that catches, slows and utilizes large volumes of rain water. They can be excellent at reducing #flooding or helping troublesome areas where water pools on a landscape. #RainGardens also prevent stormwater runoff by using up rain water close to where it falls. Green Venture offers the #RainReadyHamilton program, funded by the City of #HamiltonON , to support residents with installing a feature on their property that helps reduce stormwater runoff. Learn all about rain gardens and the Rain Ready Hamilton program with our drop-in information session.

Add beauty and support #pollinators by planting native plants this fall! Register to receive a native plant kit containing 3 #PollinatorFriendly plants suitable for full-sun, partial shade, or full shade growing conditions. Fill out the form at the link below to reserve a native plant kit! Pick-up your native plant kit during our event, between 9:30am-12:00pm at the Binbrook Agricultural Society."

On this show, I play a song from Rain Garden; I think a lot about people who live in those remote houses on the highway; there is a power in living somewhere cheap; I feel jealous of people older than me that still have living parents; I got most angry at my dad for not being alive when my child was born; in a weird way, you only become your true self when all your parents are dead; it's unlikely any two of the millions of podcasts have the same workflow; every family is its own weird cult; my father arguing with me about the math of permutations was a big event; if I need an account to read your article then I ain't reading it; I am intrigued by balcony solar; even without storage solar helps with heat waves; tags.pub had a weird pushback; I just block people who bug me and I don't feel bad about it; I fixed my Forgejo action runner on a machine it never previously worked on because I forgot I was fixing the wrong machine.

🌱 On a rainy day, I watched my yard turn into a mini lake, and it hit me—what a waste!

That’s when I decided to create a rain garden.

Not only does it soak up the water, but it also adds a splash of life to my landscape.

Spent the morning sowing seeds for our Knob Hill Native Plant Gardens. I'm trying to grow Buttonbush from seed - if it sprouts, this shrub will go in our future #RainGarden.

Rain gardens collect and filter stormwater, reduce flooding, and provide habitat and food to wildlife.
