“Do your part to help protect streams and Puget Sound while also keeping stormwater drainage away from your home. A free workshop will provide all the details needed to build one or more rain gardens in your yard to create a low-maintenance, attractive feature that will also provide habitat for birds and butterflies.

This how-to workshop will be offered on
Thursday, April 1,
from 6:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m.
at the Yelm Community Schools Building,
107 First Street N.,
in Yelm.

Each participant will receive detailed information about designing and building a rain garden, as well as a free handbook and beautiful four-color poster.

The workshop is free but registration is required. To register or for more information, contact the WSU Native Plant Salvage Project at nativeplantsalvage@gmail.com or call 360-867-2166. This workshop is co-sponsored by Thurston County Stream Team and WSU Extensions Native Plant Salvage Project.”
