Overview

The Company

Rain Garden Network, begun in 2003, is joined by Ecotone Digital Media and Citizen Solution in an effort to help communities curb and hopefully eliminate their non-point source pollution problems. These three organizations compliment each other by providing electronic & print material development, on-site BMP installation & assistance and education & outreach solutions.

Although we are located in Chicago and might have a slight bias for Midwest solutions these on-site stormwater management techniques can be utilized by nearly any community.

Rain Garden Network works to bring simple, proven and inexpensive solutions to local stormwater issues for property owners and municipalities, including homeowners, schools, community gardens, environmental organizations, churches and public & private companies and corporations. Rain Garden Network designs, builds and maintains rain gardens as well as other personal rainwater management systems.

Citizen Solution is a coalition building, citizen action and education program that works hand-in-hand with Rain Garden Network to educate the public about non-point source pollution problems and promote strong actions to deal with these problems. Citizen Solution provides education and outreach efforts through direct contact to multiple audiences and through online educational material.

Ecotone Digital Media works with small & medium sized businesses, non-profit organizations and individuals to show them how to communicate their ideas, projects and accomplishments quickly and accurately while saving time and money. Ecotone Digital Media designs & develops web sites, print and other communications material.
