15 July, 2023

Description

If you want to purchase a rain barrel, you will need to do so BEFORE the class. Barrels will not be for sale the day of the class. If you plan to purchase after the class, please contact [email protected] to coordinate your pickup. During this class you will learn how the use of rain barrels can conserve water, save money by reducing the use of potable water in landscapes (lower utility bills), and reduce stormwater runoff by storing and diverting runoff from impervious surfaces (like roofs). Practical tips on the construction and installation of rain barrels will be provided. After workshop we will have a Q/A session with the Rain Barrel Instructor, Florida-Friendly Landscaping Specialist, and a Sarasota County Air & Water Quality representative. Bring any questions concerning UF/IFAS or environment. We will do our best to answer any environmental questions you may have. Please register for this event ONLY at ufsarasotaext.eventbrite.com rather than any third-party websites, as they are not affiliated with our classes and events. Rain barrels will be available for pickup until 11:30 a.m. the day of the workshop. If you would like to take home a rain barrel(s), please complete your purchase by 11 PM October 31, by clicking the green 'Get Tickets' button. Only barrels purchased prior to that date and time will be available for pickup after the workshop. If you would prefer to wait until after the workshop to decide on a barrel purchase or you are unable to pick up your barrel(s) at the scheduled time, please email [email protected] with subject line "Rain Barrel."
