Gardening isn’t as easy when it’s wet and cold. 

Unless you are utilizing a rain garden. University of Illinois Extension Horticulture Educator Andrew Holsinger says that it’s a great way to garden with native plants.

Holsinger describes what that looks like. 

There is a rain garden at the extension office in Taylorville you can check out to gain a framework for your potential garden. 

While you’ll have a beautiful garden, you will also positively impact the pollinators.
