Did you know that 40% of residential water use in the summer is from lawn and garden watering? Why not let Mother Nature pay the water bill by constructing your own rain storage system?  Rain barrels are a great way to collect runoff from your roof and store it for watering your vegetable and flower gardens, while helping cut back on your water bill. Step by step instructions, materials and demonstration are provided so you will have your own rain barrel to take home at the end of the workshop.
