Rain Barrel Workshop

Think GREEN…build a rain barrel to capture and use storm water!

Date: Thursday April 28
Time:  6:30-8 PM
Location:  Dutchess County Farm &  Home Center, Millbrook
Cost:  $45/person, includes cost of rain barrel

Rain barrels are a great option to better manage
excess storm water from your roof.  The water is captured before it
picks up pollutants, and it is safe to use for watering plants.  A
rain barrel can save gardeners up to 1,300 gallons of water during the
peak summer months!   This workshop will help you learn to better
manage storm water AND will help you build your own 55 gallon rain
barrel to take home.
