Blue Thumb workshops will teach residents how to create their own rain garden, native plant garden or a garden to stabilize shoreland, which can benefit water quality.
Introductory workshops are free and are open to all residents of Dakota County. Attendees to the design classes can apply for a $250 grant to help install their Blue Thumb garden project.
