The Fox River Ecosystem Partnership (FREP) was awarded a
Kane County Riverboat Fund Grant in 2009 to launch a new project
- The Kane County Rain Garden Initiative. FREP
has partnered with Kane-DuPage Soil & Water Conservation
District, University of Illinois Extension, and the Fox Valley
Park District on project efforts in Kane County, including the
creation of a demonstration rain garden at the University of
Illinois Research Farm in St. Charles, development of school
curriculum, the creation of a resource CD, and programs/events
to highlight rain gardens in the County.
