Gardening and Water Conservation with Rain Reserve

8. October 2009 16:28
Each year tens of thousands of gallons of rainwater runs off your roof, not only does that water then spread waste from cities and towns into rivers and streams, it can also be diverted, collected, and put to good use. For people interested in the intersection between sustainability and agriculture, the Rain Reserve easily diverts water through gutters and a purification system into a barrel.  The fresh, clean rainwater is a great reminder of how small changes can make a big difference when it comes to scare and shared resources like a community water supply.
