Make & Take Rain Barrel Workshop
6:00 pm
Make & Take Rain Barrel Workshop
@ Dakota County Fairgrounds
Aug 22 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
 What’s one of the simplest, high-impact ways to save water and help protect our watershed? Using a make & take rain barrel. The workshop will begin with a presentation on how home lawn and garden practices impact our waters and how we can make a difference. Next we’ll discuss the watershed-friendly benefits of rain barrels in more detail, then review how to build, incorporate, install and maintain them. With guidance from Friends of the Mississippi River staff, participants will then build their very own rain barrel to take home following the workshop. Participants will receive the necessary parts ($35 per kit) and be guided through the process of converting used syrup barrels from Coca-Cola into a rain barrel to take home and install.
