Description
Class Details:
The Master Rain Gardener in-person course includes four classes over a four-week period. Classes also include homework, quizzes, and individualized feedback.
By the end you have your rain garden all planned out, and you are ready to dig, build a rain garden and become a Master Rain Gardener!
Light snacks will be provided.
Certification Routes:
Participants must complete all coursework and then plant a new rain garden.
We recognize that not everyone can build a rain garden on their own property though, so you can also become certified by participating in a public rain garden building, volunteering at a public rain garden, or passing along your new expertise to the public (i.e. presenting to your garden club, at a public library, etc.). We will provide resources to guide you.
Upon certification, you’ll receive a Master Rain Gardener t-shirt, sign, and certificate (included in the cost of registration).
Professional Certification:
Are you a professional looking to market your rain garden design or installation skills? Chagrin River Watershed Partners offers a Professional Certification geared toward landscape professionals and contractors looking to install rain gardens professionally on residential properties. Learn more about that option here.
