Event: Water Tower Park Raingarden Instillation and Planting
Site: 11066 North Ave.,
Chisago City
Time: 8:30a.m. – 12:30p.m.
Field Volunteers Needed: 50

Description: Great River Greening is partnering with Chisago City to build a rain garden at one of the cities newest parks, Water Tower Park. The park overlooks a wetland area, nature boardwalk, and a trail head for bikers and hikers. Volunteers are needed to install a rain garden at the edge of the park’s playground. In addition to the rain garden, volunteers will beautify the area by planting native trees, shrubs, grasses, and perennials. The rain garden will prevent erosion in the park and water pollution in the near by wetlands which will help ensure the area’s longevity for future generations to come.
Support for this project has been provided by Chisago City and Chisago Soil & Water Conservation District
Individuals of all ages, families, community and corporate groups are welcome to participate in Greening’s restoration events.
