About Rainscaping

what is rainscaping?

Rainscaping is a Bay-friendly landscaping practice that stops stormwater runoff and absorbs excess nutrients and sediment before they get into our waterways.

Slow it down, Spread it out, Soak it up.

Rainscaping benefits

Rainscaping filters and slows stormwater, provides habitat, and avoids toxic chemicals. Rainscaping practices collect and filter runoff from roof downspouts, driveways, patios, and surrounding yard areas. Native plants attract pollinators, thrive in the local climate, mimic natural ecosystems, and reduce the need for fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides.
