Girl Scouts are building rain gardens, which are planted depressions filled with native plants that capture and absorb storm water and serve as functional gardens. You'll go on the It’s Your Planet—Love It! Leadership Journey and learn about, construct, and maintain a rain garden at school, home, and your friend's homes.
| GOAL: | To increase green space and wildlife habitats, and improve water quality by reducing water-borne pollutants running into streams, rivers, and other water supplies |
| HOW: | Plant and maintain rain gardens at schools, homes, and other sites |
- Carry out the Girl Scouts Forever Green Rain Gardens project.
- Make your project count! Record your participation and project results online and share with friends and family via social media or email.
- Take the Girl Scouts Forever Green Pledge online and invite others to do the same.
