Upcoming Programs

Rain Barrel Workshops

Rain barrels are a convenient water collection system, allowing you to save rainwater from your downspout for a variety of uses. This sustainable solution is a win-win, minimizing household water consumption while decreasing stormwater runoff!

During this workshop, our Director of Conservation will lead you through the step-by-step process of putting your rain barrel together and installing it at home. All necessary supplies will be provided and participants will leave with a completed rain barrel that is ready to be installed and collect stormwater on their property!
