Rain Garden
Established in 2016
With an interest in improving the water quality of Madison Lake, the Madison Lake Watershed and Lake Association in collaboration with the City of Madison Lake and All Saints Catholic Church constructed a Rain Garden in 2016 in order to reduce pollutants from entering Madison Lake.
The garden located at the south end of 4th Street below All Saints Academy Childcare Center, redirects storm sewer water and immediate runoff into a biofiltration basin. Through a series of elevations and plants, sediments and pollutants are trapped before the water reaches the lake.
