Rain Barrel Workshops
Adams County and CSU Extension in Adams were the first in Colorado to begin a rain barrel workshop program after the use of these types of water conservation and harvesting tools was made legal in the summer of 2016.
Rain barrel workshops are an opportunity for residents to learn the facts, become familiar with the environmental benefits of rain harvesting, and leave armed with the tools to become a successful water conservation hero. The $50 registration fee for the workshops covers the educational workshop and a free rain barrel kit to take home. A limited number of registrations are available; one barrel per household. You must complete the workshop to receive a barrel. Watch for future dates for rain barrel workshops to be posted here.
