Spring is coming and many of us are thinking about new gardening and landscaping projects. If you’re in that group, why not consider a project that will help restore and protect rivers and streams while adding beauty and value to your property?
If you live in Portland, creating a rain garden, installing an ecoroof, planting trees and other projects to manage stormwater runoff on your property can save you money. You can get all that information along with links to resources to help you complete your project at WorkingGreenPortland.com.
Property owners can use WorkingGreenPortland.com to learn about effective stormwater management, connect with local stormwater professionals and businesses, find out about city grants and financial incentives, and then share stormwater projects with others.
