The rainy season is just beginning here in California and hopefully
2009/2010 will be wetter than the drought conditions of the past three
years. But no matter what the weather holds, we can prepare for the
coming dry season by collecting and storing rain water. This class
explores methods of rainwater harvesting and storage from roof
materials, to tanks and their costs, to landworks, and finally to using
pure, sweet rainwater in your garden. We'll discuss permitting,
mosquitos, and calculating the amounts of rainwater against the cost of
storage. We'll show how rainwater harvesting not only saves water, but
energy and infrastructure as well, and how it can be a part of every
garden.
