    Mary Cummings, Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Gloucester County     History:

    The Old Stone House Village rain garden was installed as part of the Landscaper
    Training program, targeting landscapers in South Jersey. The Landscaper Training
    program was funded by the United States Department of Agriculture Cooperative
    State Research Education and Extension Service National Integrated Water Quality
    Program under agreement number 2007-51130-03878.



    Type of Runoff Managed:

    This rain garden managed stormwater from the Old Stone House Village parking lot
    and roof through a downspout leading into the rain garden.  Any overflow in the rain
    garden is routed into a nearby pond.


    Installation:

     Rutgers Cooperative Extension Faculty and Staff and approximately ten (10) Master      Gardeners of Gloucester County volunteered their time to help install this rain      garden.
