CommonBond Raingarden Maintenance

Metro Blooms works with CommonBond Communities, a nonprofit that provides opportunities for stable housing. Over the years, we have rehabilitated and maintained raingardens at two of their senior housing sites in Minneapolis, at Kingsley Commons and at Bii Di Dash Anwebi. Maintenance work involves inspecting and cleaning up the raingardens, including weeding and caring for native plants. We document the inspection for compliance with city stormwater regulations. We have also trained on-site staff on maintenance practices.
