We recently hosted two Rain Barrel Workshops for community members.

πŸ’™ At the end of the workshop, everyone earned a certificate for a free rain barrel β€” ready to put what they learned into action and reduce runoff right in their own yards!

Thanks to our partners at MMSD and Fresh Coast Guardians!
