Rain Barrel


This spring we have planted about 120 native plant plugs, in addition to a number of other flowers, and have not turned on the hose yet. When we need to water, we just fill up a bucket or watering can at our rain barrel. It takes just the tiniest rainfall to fill it up. We still have not turned our sprinklers on, either, and we think we'll keep going as long as we can without using them.
