Rain Garden Poster Base Camp Order 4 or more today & save! Over 20,000 in print! "Everyone loves Good Nature's Rain Garden Poster!" The Rain Garden Poster from Good Nature Publishing is a real eye catcher for my booth. People stop to admire it, and then I get to tell them how these beautiful gardens function to reduce stormwater problems! (A laminated poster makes it easy to show the illustrations on the back too.) Using the poster to promote the concept of green infrastructure in older neighbourhoods - where stormwater causes the most problems - I'm hoping to create more support for "green" innovation in the public sector. Freya Keddie, Urban Rain Catchers Canada "Beautiful! Everyone loves the new Rain Garden poster. Thanks." Candace Stoughton, East Multnomah SWCD, Portland Oregon

SPECIES LIST BELOW (Scroll Down) Rain Garden Text under title: Rain gardens work like a native forest by capturing and infiltrating stormwater from rooftops, driveways, and other hard surfaces. Rain gardens -- reduce flooding by absorbing water from impervious surfaces; filter oil, grease and toxic materials before they can pollute streams, lakes and bays; help to recharge the aquifer by increasing the quantity of water that soaks into the ground; provide beneficial wildlife habitat.

Special thanks to Jeffrey Kee with Freshwater Trust for being the visionary for this Rain Garden poster. And thanks to the following agencies who committed to this project when it was just a blank sheet of paper with some species names on it: Clackamas County Office of Sustainability Clackamas County–Water Environment Services Clean Water Services (Washington County Special District) East Multnomah SWCD METRO Portland Thurston County Water Services Rain Gardens are crucial to water conservation. Water conservation is necessary for us to do more with less water pouring through our storm systems. Perfect for filtering toxics in urban areas, manure and other run off in rural areas. Let 1,000,000 Rain Gardens bloom! Good Nature's Green Living Series was thought up by client Clackamas SWCD's Jeffrey Kee-- in response to a need for quality art work to illustrate the many benefits of rain gardens, eco-roofs, back yard habitats, and good horse pasture practices. The Green Living Series poster will feature John C. Pitcher's fine art painting in the centerpiece, with running border of key native species to plant. (See John C. Pitcher's previous gorgeous work for Good Nature: Giant Sequoia , Native Wildflowers, Aspen ecosystem & his own website here.) Rain Garden Plants 1.
