Award in Rain Gardens (Level 2)
Course overview: Rain Gardens Award Level 2
Are you looking to expand your career prospects into a sustainable career to help the environment? Undertake an in-depth exploration of rain gardens with Capel Manor’s Level 2 short course Award in Rain Gardens.
Rain gardens are a sustainable landscaping solution designed to manage storm water run-off effectively. Rain gardens involve strategically designed depressions filled with native vegetation and porous soil, enabling them to capture, filter, and absorb rainwater runoff from impervious surfaces like roofs, driveways, and sidewalks.
This course will delve into the principles of rain garden design, installation, and maintenance, and will equip you with the key skills to implement the correct site and plant selection, and appropriate construction techniques.
You will learn through hands-on activities, case studies, and practical demonstrations. Upon completion of this course you will be able to introduce rain gardens in your local community, and can help contribute to a more resilient, sustainable, and beautiful landscape.

- How to prepare the ground for seeding and planting
