Suamico, WI: Rain Garden in Suamico

What Works
 E-mail | Print |
In May, the Village of Suamico (population 10,895), in partnership with the Northeast Wisconsin Master Gardeners program, constructed a demonstration rain garden at village hall.  The garden treats roof runoff, and will serve as a location for community programs on how to construct, care for, and winterize a rain garden.

On a larger scale roof runoff from the homes in the Bay Port Heights subdivision will discharge to a rain garden.  The gardens are developer funded and eliminated the need for an additional storm water treatment pond.
