Event
Be Cistern Savvy!
Come learn about harvesting rainwater with cisterns! Instead of storing 50 gallons in a rain barrel, why not store the thousands of gallons your roof collects in a cistern? Cisterns save you money, conserve water, prevent storm water pollution, and can remedy drainage issues. Cistern water can be used for your garden as well as for your indoor water needs. This workshop will cover the basics and benefits of cisterns, understanding the components of how a cistern works, how to customize a water harvesting system for you, how to get started, and local resources. To maximize your participation, bring the square footage of your house along with your average daily water use (taken from your water bill). Presented by EarthSystemsNW, a local company specializing in cistern installation for residential homeowners. www.earthsystemsnw.com
