Launched by WEC and Braided River, We Are Puget Sound is a book and campaign that connects people and place through shared actions that build collective solutions for a healthy Salish Sea for people, wildlife, and the environment. 

Installing raingardens that treat polluted runoff is key to a healthy Puget Sound and cleaner water for all. And they are great ways for all of us to do our part for orcas and salmon, and our neighborhoods. 

As you think about your next home improvement project, consider installing a raingarden. The benefits of raingardens extend far beyond your own home and provide cleaner water for your entire community. If installing a raingarden isn’t an option, explore raingardens in your neighborhood or check out our interactive resources to teach your family about their benefits.

To learn more, attend the virtual event from the comfort of your home: Raingardens for People, Salmon, and Orcas: A #WeArePugetSound Web Event.

Thanks for all you do,
