Rain Barrel Workshop

Learn about the benefits of rain barrels for water quality and gardening. The first half of the workshop is a presentation about the effects of runoff on water quality, the benefits of rain barrels, and how to install and maintain your rain barrel. During the second half of the workshop you will assemble your 55-gallon rain barrel and bring it home. Workshop fee is $40 but as an added bonus, a rebate of $20 is available from the City of Northfield once you install your rain barrel. Sign up on the website below or call CRWP at 507-786-8400. Instructor: Aaron Wills, Cannon River Watership Partnership.
