Alabama Rain Barrel Project Workshop

     Here's a "go green" project you'll really get a lot out of.

     The Alabama Clean Water Partnership is once again holding their Rain Barrel Project Workshop.  You'll be able to learn about watersheds, local watershed issues, and storm water and how it affects water quality.  Rain water harvesting is one way to help save water.  And using water you collected in a rain barrel for things like watering your garden, watering your lawn, or even washing your car helps you save money on your water bill and also helps the environment.  At the workshop you'll be making your own 55 gallon plastic rain barrel to take home, so be prepared to get a little dirty.  Trainers will be there to help you put your rain barrel together.  Your rain barrel will be easy to maintain once you get it home.

     There are openings available at both workshops, but spaces will go quickly, so make your reservation early.  The cost for the workshop is $30.  If you want to make more than one rain barrel, the cost is $30 for each additional rain barrel you make.

     Virginia Madden, our qualifying broker and owner, will be there at the workshop making a rain barrel to give away in a future contest.  So join her there and make your very own rain barrel.  Have some fun, save money, and help the environment!
