DIY Rainwater Harvesting Workshop
May 4, 2024
10am to 12pm
Northfield Park – John Barfield Pavilion
North Richland Hills
Capture water while it is raining this spring to use on your landscape later!
Join our workshop to learn how, then build your own rain barrel to take home!
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 and purchase a discounted barrel to take home!
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 Workshop is for North Richland Hills, Texas Residents Only and there are only 25 spots available.
This workshop is in-person and includes a class about rainwater harvesting basics and a demonstration on how to build a barrel.
After the class portion, you will get to build your own rain barrel to take home. This is an educational opportunity and class attendance is required to get a barrel.
