Explore a wide riverfront property with a tumbling waterfall, large rain gardens, a wildlife pond, a young native tree forest, a wildflower meadow, and berry gardens. The water gardens entice birds from the wide Assabet River flyway. Learn about this rain garden construction, which utilizes all the rainwater from the house roof. Discuss the process of working within conservation commission requirements for wetland and riverbank protection and native plant buffers. Come a little early with your bag lunch if you like.
