DIY Rainwater Harvesting – Online
September 14 @ 8:00 am - September 20 @ 5:00 pm
Free
Capture water while it is raining this fall to use on your landscape later!
Join our workshop to learn how!
The first 10 Southlake residents who register and attend the class will get a free 50-gallon rain barrel!
Rainwater harvesting is great for North Texas because you can keep some of the rain we get during the spring and fall to use during our hot and dry summers. Even a small roof area can produce a usable amount of water during an average rainfall. From huge cisterns to small DIY barrels, capturing rainwater can be done by anyone. Attend this workshop to learn the ins and outs of rainwater harvesting.
Learn about:
- How much water your roof will produce in a year
- Where to put your rain barrel to capture the most water
- How to install a barrel
- How to hook up and use your new water source
- How to build your own 50 gallon rain barrel with just a few supplies from the hardware store
This is a free online class that will be on-demand from September 14-20. Register here to receive information on how to participate.
After registering, check your email for instructions on how to join the online event.
This event is brought to you by the City of Southlake and Tarrant Regional Water District.
