...but go away slowly!
UMD has several rain gardens, designed to slow the flow of
stormwater to Oregon Creek. This flagship garden can handle the
runoff from the nearby 2.5 acre parking lot - it can hold 60,000
gallons, or almost 90% of the rainfall from a 1 inch
rainstorm.
The rain garden consists of a wetland zone, a sediment basin, and a
small woodland hiding a small cache. The water entering Oregon
creek ends up cooler and clearer as it works its way to Lake
Superior.
Take a stroll and enjoy the garden! You can learn more on UMD's Rain Garden Page
