This month is well on its way to being one of the wettest Mays on record. A rain garden is an intelligent way to put that rainwater to good use. In today’s video from the Building Wisconsin TV series, host Stuart Keith and Karen Sands from the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District show how to install a rain garden in your yard. This project features Mid-City Plumbing & Heating disconnecting an older home’s drain tile system which was feeding rainwater into the sewer and directing that water into a sump pit to pump it out into the yard.
