“Using a natural resource like rainwater helps conserve treated water and protect the environment”

Let’s face it, it rains a lot here! So why not put that rain to good use? Installing a water butt (an outdoor container for storing rain water) will give you a great supply of water for keeping your garden hydrated in the dryer months, and the they’re super easy to install. Water butts collect water from roof tops and can be attached to whatever rainwater drainage system you have in place.
