Help the Environment with Rain Barrels!
Rain barrels are a simple, effective way to reduce rainwater runoff—a major cause of pollution in our local waterways. Runoff carries fertilizers, pesticides, and other contaminants into streams and rivers, but collecting roof water in a rain barrel helps prevent this.
Not only does this protect the environment, it also gives you free water to use on your lawn, garden, or indoor plants. It’s conservation that saves you money!
As part of our Green School Initiative, our school is selling rain barrels to the community. This fundraiser supports both our programs and a healthier environment.
1 for $45.00
2 for $85.00
Cash or Check.
