Archdiocese of Lublin inaugurates educational meetings in rain gardens

The Archdiocese of Lublin has started a series of educational meetings and school workshops centered on its network of seven rain gardens. These sessions use the garden infrastructure as outdoor laboratories to teach participants about blue and green infrastructure.

The first field meetings took place at rain gardens in Chmiel-Kolonia and Częstoborowice, as well as at a school in Tuszów. In Chmiel-Kolonia and Częstoborowice, landscape architects and water retention experts led two-hour educational walks for local residents and parish representatives. During these walks, experts used transparent model tubes to demonstrate how rainwater moves through different layers of soil, sand, and gravel.
