Indy’s Rain Gardens Clean Water Naturally | Indianapolis News
Description
Indy’s tackling water pollution with nature’s own solution: rain gardens. Using federal grants, the Marion County Soil and Water Conservation District is installing 35,000 square feet of these native-plant-powered filters at schools and community sites, soaking up sediment, nutrients, and bacteria before they hit Fall Creek. Designed to slow runoff, prevent flooding, and support pollinators, these gardens are just the start—aiming for 50,000 square feet total, including smaller backyard versions. Homeowners can get hands-on help with design, plant picks, and even tours. It’s green, effective, and ready for your yard.
