Rain gardens are specially designed landscapes that manage stormwater runoff by capturing and infiltrating rainwater. These gardens utilize native plants and engineered soil mixtures to filter pollutants and reduce excess water entering storm drains. By improving water quality and promoting groundwater recharge, rain gardens mitigate urban flooding and support local ecosystems. Effective placement near impervious surfaces enhances their capacity to control runoff from roofs, driveways, and sidewalks.
