This two-day training is presented by ecoLatinos and will be held on October 5th at Hyattsville Library and October 19th at Bladensburg Library. Participants will gain essential skills in stormwater mitigation, including rain gardens, rain barrels, and tree plantings.

Delivered entirely in Spanish, the program empowers Latino landscapers in the D.C./MD/VA region and welcomes other fluent Spanish speakers from underrepresented communities.

Participants will take part in more than 16 hours of classroom and hands-on training over two Saturdays in October. After the training, they will help with project installations in November.
