Cuyahoga Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) and the City of Richmond Heights will be hosting a Rain Barrel Workshop with the Greenwood Farm Historical, Cultural & Arts Association, Inc. and Friends of Euclid Creek on Wednesday, May 23rd from 6:30pm-8:00pm at the Greenwood Farm in Richmond Heights.
A rain barrel is a container used to collect and store rainwater that would otherwise be lost to runoff and likely diverted to a storm drain. Collected water may then be used to water lawns and gardens. Cost is $60 (Greenwood Farm members receive a $10 discount) and includes the 60 gallon barrel, all materials and downspout diverter.
To register for this workshop (registration is required), contact the Euclid Creek Watershed Coordinator at 216-524-6580x16 or cposius@cuyahogaswcd.org by May 15th.
