Thank you so much for this feature, RainWise!💚 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Julie was inspired to get RainWise in 2018 after her neighbors went through the program. Her yard was overgrown with plants from the previous owner and needed a revamp. She worked with HomeGrown Organics to install a rain garden and a cistern to help better manage the large amount of water in her neighborhood. She used to have a rain barrel that would run out mid-summer, but now her cistern lasts all season for watering. We are so excited that Julie is RainWise!" 🌿💧✨ _____________ #cistern #raingarden #rainwise #greeninfrastructure #stormwaterfiltration

What's your favorite winter bloomer? This beauty, Sarcococca, is known as sweet box or Christmas box, and its fragrant white flowers are a lovely surprise in the cold weather! It works great as a shade shrub, grows quite slowly, and produces red berries that eventually turn black (generally inedible to humans, but beloved by birds). It's even deer-resistant! 📸 @jhncoghlan 💮👃❄️ ______________ #sarcococca #sweetbox #winterflower #blooming #fragrant

Are you a waterfront homeowner who is concerned about erosion eventually becoming an issue on your property? There are some wonderful options out there beyond bulkheads or seawalls, and it's incredible to see the solutions that coastal engineers have designed to decrease these concerns! Shoreline restoration is so important, and there are great ways to go about it that are friendly to our ecosystem and can help protect Puget Sound and your space.🌊 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "More than 25% of the Puget Sound shoreline has bulkheads or other “hard armor” instead of a natural waterfront. Much of it was erected decades ago, before the risks and ecological impact were well understood. We now know that bulkheads are unnecessary on most Puget Sound shorelines and can actually worsen overall erosion. They also damage delicate habitat that is crucial to the survival of our coastal species, from insects and seabirds to salmon and orcas."🐳 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Reach out if you're interested in addressing your own concerns as we are offering shoreline restoration, in addition to the wetland restoration we offer as well!
