The PA Resources Council will hold a Watershed Awareness, Rain Barrel Workshop on September 27 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the Phipps Garden Center in Mellon Park, Allegheny County. Workshop participants will learn how to harvest rainwater from their roofs, store it, and use it in the landscape. They also learn how to reduce their contribution to combined sewer overflow (CSO), flooding, and polluted urban runoff by learning how to practice watershed protection and conservation in their own backyards. It’s easier than you think! Participants will also receive a FreeGarden RAIN 55-gallon rain barrel. Designed with the homeowner and gardener in mind, it is affordable, attractive, and easy to install. The cost of the workshop is $80/person and $85/couple. Workshop gift certificates and premade rain barrels are now available. Contact Nancy Martin at 412-488-7490 ext. 247 or email her at: nancym@prc.org.
