• Rain Barrel Workshop at Westover Hills 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.
