Make and Take a Rainbarrel home

Hey Folks,

Wouldn't it be great to start the Spring out with extra water on hand? We get the highest percentage of rain in the month of February in Georgia. If you have a rainbarrel, you could be ahead of the weatherman!

Make one for cheap this weekend - details here:

And here's another site to give you the low-down on rainbarrel use -- like, 1/2 inch of rain on 1000 square feet of roof area will yield 300 gallons of water!

I don't know about you, but my water bill just went up about 20% last month. Adding a rainbarrel to your yard is a no-brainer.  Get out there a get one for yourself, and catch some free water!
