St. Paul Raingardens Walking Tour

Display Date: 
Saturday, June 13, 2009 — 10:30 am-12:30 pm
Location: 
Como neighborhood, St. Paul

Join us for a free walking tour of Como area raingardens!

Led by staff from Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD) and hosted by Friends of the Mississippi River, this tour features several raingardens in St. Paul’s “Garden District”. Each was constructed by CRWD and St. Paul’s Department of Public Works as part of the Arlington Pascal Stormwater Improvement Project. In addition to improving water quality, these raingardens are also a neighborhood amenity — contributing beauty, wildlife interest, and an opportunity for education in this subwatershed of Como Lake.

The tour will involve walking on paved park trails and sidewalks for approximately 2 miles over a two-hour time period. The tour is free and open to all, but capacity is limited to maintain a quality experience and pre-registration is required. (The meeting place will be emailed to registrants only.)
