Rain Barrel Workshop at North Avenue Branch Library in Richmond

Rain Barrel Workshop at North Avenue Branch Library in Richmond
Every time it rains, stormwater carries nutrients from fertilizers, bacteria from pet waste, and chemicals from herbicides and pesticides from our homes to local waterways. Using a rain barrel at home is a way to reduce stormwater pollution and conserve water. Rainwater harvested by a rain barrel can be used to water gardens and landscapes. A single rain barrel can collect hundreds, even thousands of gallons of rainwater annually, save residents money on their water bills, and reduce stormwater utility fees in some localities too.
