Learn how to make a rain barrel out of a plastic food-grade 55 gallon barrel, how to catch rain from your rooftop via your rain gutter downspouts, and how to direct overflow away from buildings.  Bring your own barrel and you can buy a plumbing kit for $12.50 (barrel not included) to make a rain barrel during the workshop or later at home.  Learn about other ways to capture water also.
