Rain Barrel Workshop

Save Money, Save Water, Help Your Garden Grow

We are partnering with the Virginia Extension Office to bring the popular Rain Barrel workshop to you on Thursday, July 22 from 6:00-9:00 p.m. at the Hopewell Library. Extension Agent Scott Reiter will make a short presentation, demonstrate how to assemble the rain barrels, and then be on hand to help everyone assemble their own. You will bring home your new rain barrel that night.

The cost for the rain barrel is $35. Checks made out to “Virginia Cooperative Extenstion – Prince George” need to be dropped off at the library Information Desk by Monday, July 19 in order to reserve your spot. You may attend the event free of charge if you are curious but not ready to invest in a rain barrel.

Call 458-6329 or come by the Hopewell Library to register.
