Rain Barrel Workshop – Cleveland Public Library Eastman Campus

REGISTRATION CLOSED

Location: Cleveland Public Library | Eastman Campus – 11602 Lorain Avenue Cleveland, OH 44111

Learn how to harvest rainwater for all your garden needs and to combat stormwater pollution in your community by constructing a rain barrel!

Cuyahoga SWCD will present a rain barrel workshop and pick-up event hosted by the Cleveland Public Library at the Eastman Campus on Saturday, June 15, 2024 from 11:00a-12:00p.

Participants will learn how to assemble and install their rain barrels at this event. Alternatively, participants can pick up their rain barrel and construct at home with provided online instructional video.

The $60 fee includes instruction and 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 8th. 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.
