The Rain Campaign was launched in 2019 as a localized effort across the Des Moines metro to inspire residents, businesses, and municipalities to be part of the solution towards managing stormwater runoff in a better way. Through the utilization of community-wide incentive programs, we can all take action to improve the water quality of our local creeks, rivers, ponds, and lakes.
The Rain Campaign shares and implements a variety of rainscaping best practices in Central Iowa. These practices are designed to help control flooding, mitigate soil erosion, and maintain water quality.
