Spring is finally here! Let’s celebrate by getting our hands dirty at the Hazelwood Food Forest. We need to capture and retain water on the site especially until the young trees and plants are established. This first workday of 2011 will focus on setting up a gutter and downspout for the shed so that we can hook up to a rain barrel. We will also be doing some spring clean-up. Handy folks are especially needed to help put up the gutters!
Following the work day, Luke Stamper of the Nine Mile Run Watershed Association will explain and show us how to install a rain barrel as well as answer participants’ questions. Luke helps to manage the Rain Barrel Initiative inside the Nine Mile Run Watershed and is quite experienced with installing rain barrels.
Join us at 10:00 am and trade some work for the demonstration/class. Or come at 11:00 am just for the demonstration/class for $5.
