Hello and thank you for your question,
MSU Extension does not promote specific external companies or brands, however, here are some great resources that will hopefully help you on your way:
The Native Plant Guild has listings of landscape professionals by region: https://www.nativeplantguild.com/
The Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association has a “Find a Professional” tool where you can search for landscape designers by location and business type: https://www.plantmichigangreen.com/findaprofessional
The directory from the Association of Professional Gardeners also has listings of gardeners in your region:
https://www.associationofprofessionalgardeners.org/
If you’re interested in checking out a few resources about rain gardens before contractors/designers come out to your site, consider visiting https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/soak-up-the-rain-with-a-rain-garden . The article itself along with the resources at the end of the article include great insights into rain garden design, placement, plants, and construction.
Thank you again for your question!
