After the original caretaker of a community garden in Mobile, Alabama, fell ill, the garden slowly slipped into a sad state. Thankfully, the Alabama Herb Society came to its rescue. Alabama Cooperative Extension Services (ACES) brings us the story of how a state program helped make all the difference in this project.

Alabama Extension’s Alabama Watershed Stewards program offers a number of resources including, a guide on how to install your very own rain garden, resources on rainwater harvesting, and information on water quality management practices.
