What is a Master Rain Gardener? Come train with us, and find out!

Rain Gardens filter out pollutants so that our streams and rivers run clean. Anyone can plant one in their own back yard! During our Master Rain Gardener Certification Class, held every Wednesday at 9:30 am, from Jan 17 – Feb 14, you will learn to design your own rain garden step-by-step. Share your knowledge and become your neighborhood’s expert on rain gardens! 

The location is at the MSU Extension Classroom, 705 N. Zeeb Road, Ann Arbor.  The cost is $89 — scholarships are available. Instructors, are Susan Bryan and Harry Sheehan of the Washtenaw County Water Resources Commissioner’s Office; with Shannan Gibb-Randall of InSite Design Studio. Participants must attend all five classes, dig and plant a rain garden to receive their Master Rain Gardener Certificate.
