Rain Barrel Workshop in Euclid

Cuyahoga Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) and the City of Euclid will be hosting a 4th annual Rain Barrel Workshop with the Friends of Euclid Creek on Saturday, April 21st from 10:00am-11:30am at the Euclid Historical Society. 

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 (Friends of Euclid Creek 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 April 13th. 

Stop by and see environmental displays on composting, rain gardens and other sustainable practices.  Booths include the Euclid Community Garden, Solar Fountain, Worm Farm, Container Planting and more.
