Rain Gardens and Restoration of Natural Water Cycles
with Lise Townsend
Lise Townsend (MSc, PRBio) will be sharing approaches on how we can restore the natural water cycles in urban centres and review how we look at the management of this precious resource. She'll look at how rain gardens can contribute to biodiversity, the basics of rain garden design and the ideal native plants for use in these gardens.
UVic, MacLaurin Bldg, Rm D-116
Non member drop-in fee: $3
