Rainwater Harvesting for the Home
We can catch the rain!! The myth of California being too dry is gone. There is an abundance of water and that water falls on your roof every winter. It takes just 1" of rain on a 1000 sq ft house to catch over 600 gallons of water. We'll teach you how.
Join Rootstock Permaculture, Sustainable Contra Costa & Pleasant Hill Green Businesses as we build a water harvesting system from BlueBarrel Rainwater Catchment Systems using recycled, food grade barrels. You'll learn what it takes to harvest water in small spaces, from sizing and placement to actually installing a water harvesting system.
In this workshop at a Martinez/Pleasant Hill, CA residence, participants will work together to build a 4-barrel (220 gallon!) BlueBarrel System. Everyone will use their hands. Everyone will have fun!!
