Raingarden Workshop (Part A)Purchase The Blue Thumb Guide to Raingardens - Design and Installation for Homeowners in the Upper Midwest -- authors Rusty Schmidt, Dan Shaw and David Dods. Pick up your book at the workshop you selected. The Raingarden Workshop (Part A) teaches landowners how to install a raingarden using native plants that don’t require fertilizers or pesticides, and whose long roots help draw the water deep into the soil. Rusty Schmidt, a Minneapolis landscape ecologist, is the key presenter. He has designed and maintained a wide range of alternative stormwater treatment systems including raingardens, bio-retention areas, and constructed wetlands in urban environments including Minneapolis, Ohio, Seattle and Kansas City. With Dan Shaw, he’s authored Plants for Stormwater Design, and The Blue Thumb Guide to Raingardens. This workshop has not been scheduled for the upcoming year yet. Please check back for future updates.
