SUMMARY:Rain Barrel Workshop at Starr Hill Downtown
DESCRIPTION: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. A single rain barrel can collect hundreds\, even thousands of gallons of rainwater annually. Join the James River Association\, the Piedmont Master Gardeners\, and other members of the Rivanna Stormwater Education Partnership for a rain barrel workshop at Starr Hill Downtown at the Dairy Market in Charlottesville on Thursday\, September 4\, at 6 p.m. Participants will learn how to assemble and install rain barrels at home. For the $50 registration fee\, you will receive a 55-gallon drum\, a RainRecycle Rain Barrel Kit from The Rain Barrel Depot\, and a beverage. Register here to take part.
