Beautifying and Maintaining Your Stormwater Management Areas Workshop
Wednesday, March 20th
7:00 — 8:00pm
The Conservation Foundation and DuPage County Stormwater Management have invited Jack Pizzo of Pizzo & Associates, Ltd. to talk about what it takes to maintain detention basins on your property or in your HOA. While their primary function is to hold water, installing native plants can provide a host of other benefits. They not only make the basin more beautiful, they clean the water, reduce erosion on the banks, prevent algae from growing, and provide tons of habitat to local wildlife. Natural spaces need stewardship that can save money over the weekly-mowed lawn. The benefits start as soon as the work begins and grow rapidly over time. Come learn how you can make this happen in our virtual workshop!
