Harvest rainwater for all your garden needs and combat stormwater pollution in your community with your own rain barrel!
Cuyahoga SWCD will present a rain barrel pick-up event hosted by the City of Garfield Heights on Wednesday, June 26, 2024 from 6:00pm-7:30pm.
Order in advance and pick up your barrel and diverter kit to make at home. All you need is a drill. Instructional video provided.
The $60 fee includes all materials, including a 60-gallon barrel, drill bits, and a downspout diverter. If you would like to create a two-barrel system, a second barrel and connector kit is available for an additional $40.
Registration is required by June 16th. Be sure to bring a vehicle that can accommodate your barrel(s)!
A rain barrel is a container used to collect and store rainwater that would otherwise be lost to runoff and likely diverted to a storm drain. Collected water may then be used to water lawns and gardens.
