Watershed Awareness & Rain Barrels at Phipps Garden Center

DATE: Wednesday, July 30, 2025
TIME: 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM
COST: $20 for workshop only; $80 for workshop and rain barrel;

Workshop participants will learn how to harvest rainwater from their roofs, store it, and use it in the landscape. You will also learn how to reduce your 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!  Registrants may also choose to purchase a FreeGarden RAIN barrel with their workshop ticket. This barrel has a 55-gallon capacity and is ideal for urban and suburban areas.

Please note that this workshop is hosted at Phipps Garden Center and not Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.
