With support from the Balsam Foundation, Watersheds Canada brought together 118 volunteers to establish rain gardens across three locations in Ottawa: Kanata Muslim Association, Rhoda Masjid, and Carleton Memorial United Church. Spanning 160 square metres, the projects saw the planting of four trees, 50 shrubs, 2,089 flowers, and 18 grasses, creating vibrant green spaces designed to absorb rainwater, reduce stormwater runoff, support local biodiversity, and enhance the surrounding communities.
