Rain gardens, the most common form of green infrastructure, are bowl-shaped gardens designed to capture and filter polluted stormwater runoff. Green infrastructure helps reduce toxic pollution from entering our waterways and protects our communities, salmon, and orcas. Rain gardens can be found throughout your neighborhood, even if you never realized it before.

COVD-19 has brought to light many of the inequities that exist in our society, the same inequities that climate change and pollution exploit. Everyone has the right to clean water and reducing stormwater pollution, the number one source of pollution to Puget Sound, is a step each one of us can take to provide clean water for all.
