New Rain Gardens at the Pinney Branch
The next time you’re in the neighborhood of the Pinney Branch Library, stop by and see our new micro-rain gardens! Two new rain gardens were planted alongside the library, which will capture roof runoff and be helpful in reducing flooding. The gardens add a touch of beauty to the area, and will hopefully attract birds and bees. Check out photos from the planting on Flickr.com - we’ll be adding more as our gardens grow! The gardens were made possible with funding from the Friends of the Madison Public Library, and are a part of the efforts of the Pinney Branch to “go green” and provide information and resources for sustainable living. Sustainable living resources are funded in part with a generous grant from the Madison Community Foundation.
