Rain barrels can be purchased from many home improvement stores or online locations. There are many choices and sizes.
According to the U.S. Geographical Survey, the average American uses 80-100 gallons of water a day. The demand for fresh water supply in most parts of the earth has never been as great as it currently is. As supplies decrease and prices increase municipalities are instituting conservation measures and promoting awareness of the wise use of this resource. A great to way to conserve is through rainwater harvesting.
Depending on your needs, there are many types of harvesting systems. One of the easiest ways to get started with water conservation is by installing rain barrels to your gutter system and using your free harvest for your garden, landscape, car washing, or any other outside water needs.
