Why Is Carver County Paying for Landscaping?

Carver County watershed districts invest in projects that:

• Improve water quality
• Reduce stormwater runoff
• Increase pollinator habitat

Homeowners in eligible areas can receive:

• 75% cost share for water quality improvements
• Up to $5,000 reimbursed

What Types of Projects Are Covered?

• Rain gardens
• Native plant conversions
• Pollinator habitat installations
• Shoreline stabilization
• Stormwater-focused landscape redesign

If your property drains toward a watershed priority area, you may qualify.

We Handle the Entire Process

Most homeowners don’t apply because the watershed system feels confusing. We manage:

• Site evaluation
• Eligibility confirmation
• Design planning
• Application paperwork
• Installation
• Final documentation for reimbursement

We navigate you through the entire process.

This Is a Good Fit If:

✓ You plan to upgrade your landscaping in the next 6–12 months
✓ You live in Victoria, Chanhassen, Waconia, or surrounding areas
✓ You want to reduce out-of-pocket costs
✓ You prefer a handled, start-to-finish process

If you’re just looking for basic lawn service, this likely isn’t the right program.
