Stormwater Management at the Jerome ‘Buddie’ Ford Native Garden
The Buddie Ford Demonstration Garden in Alexandria provides an excellent example of how to manage stormwater run-off on a sloped property. The techniques adopted at Buddie Ford have enhanced runoff absorption and reduced erosion to allow this native plant garden to flourish. By sharing – and permitting visitors to see – the strategies employed at Buddie Ford, we hope you, too, can successfully manage challenging stormwater scenarios on sloped sites.
