Please join us for a great day of planting native and (some) ornamental plant species in this new swale!  The swale will slow, store, and treat stormwater runoff before it enters Vermont Creek.  Join your neighbors for a chance to learn about your watershed, stormwater runoff, naturescaping, and environmental restoration in the area.

The ReDirect Guide is pleased to present the Greener Homes & Gardens and biofuels too! Expo, the Portland area’s largest and longest-running show focused on sustainable homes and gardens, and now, alternative energy.
