About this Event
This in‑depth lecture explores the role of rain barrels in sustainable water management and the practical steps homeowners can take to incorporate rainwater harvesting into their landscapes. Attendees will learn how rain barrels function, the environmental benefits of reducing stormwater runoff, and the ways captured rainwater can support healthier gardens and more efficient outdoor water use. The presentation will address system selection, installation considerations, long‑term maintenance, and local best practices, offering valuable guidance for both new and experienced gardeners.
Presented by Laura Walker of the City of Savannah, this session offers a thoughtful introduction to responsible water stewardship and the growing importance of conservation‑focused home solutions.
