Join the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, the DC Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE), and local partners for the 2026 RiverSmart Homes Showcase on Saturday, September 26 from 10:00 am to noon at Jones Memorial United Methodist Church (rear parking lot), located at 4625 G Street, SE, Washington, DC 20019 in DC’s Ward 7. An Alliance team member stands in front of a rain garden on a residential property while talking to two community members.

Learn how to keep our local waterways and air clean and healthy through green infrastructure and ecological landscaping practices.

  • Sign up for RiverSmart Homes and talk to conservation landscaping experts.
  • Community partners will be on hand to share resources on managing invasive plants and vines, caring for our tree canopy, and attracting more pollinators to your yard.
  • Come and see how Jones Memorial utilizes green infrastructure (a rain garden, cistern, shade trees, and conservation landscaping) to mitigate flooding, increase natural habitat, cool the air, and beautify its property.
  • There will be native plant and native tree giveaways, free gardening tools (while supplies last), and children’s activities.

The event is free. All are welcome. Follow the link to RSVP: tinyurl.com/RSHShowcase2026
