The City of Atlanta and the Department of Watershed Management invite you to join your Atlanta and Decatur neighbors in learning how to mke your own rain barrel! Whether we’re in a drought or not, rain barrels are a fantastic way to collect water to service your garden in any capacity. And who doesn’t like free water? You can save on your bills by having one (or more rain barrels). Plus, they’re surprisingly easy to construct yourself! At this event, you will assemble and paint your own rain barrel to take home.
