A rain garden is a landscaped area that captures and filters stormwater runoff, such as rainwater and melted snow, from roofs, driveways, and lawns. It’s designed as a shallow depression with specialized soil that allows water to soak into the ground, preventing it from entering storm drains and waterways. Rain gardens help reduce flooding, improve water quality, and create attractive habitats for wildlife.
